Do you water the maidenhair fern every day?

In summer, the maidenhair fern needs to be watered once in the morning and evening, but in spring and autumn, it is best to water it once every three days. In winter, the temperature is relatively low and the water evaporates slowly. The maidenhair fern is generally in a dormant state, so it can be watered once every ten days.

It is generally better to water the maidenhair fern in the morning. Generally, do not water it too much at one time. Just make sure the soil is completely moist. In addition, the maidenhair fern is usually watered with rice water, river water or rain water.

The correct way to water the maidenhair fern

1. Newly planted maidenhair fern does not need to be watered. You can wait until it adapts to the new soil and flowerpot before watering it. And watering should be based on the principle of watering when the soil is dry and watering when it is wet.

2. You don’t need to water the maidenhair fern after repotting it. Generally, the maidenhair fern needs some time to adapt to the new pot, and you can water it again after about five days.

3. Generally, you should pay attention to the time of watering. It is best to water it in the morning to ensure that the soil is moist all day.

Overwatering of the maidenhair fern

If you water the maidenhair fern too much, you must stop watering it first. If it is spring or autumn, place it outdoors for a few days so that the water can evaporate quickly. However, if it is winter, it is best to change the pot and replant it with drier soil.
