I propagated staghorn ferns and they are little sporophytes up after four months. For what I had read I thought they would take longer, but they are like 2 cms already. Maybe it's the weather here in my country, but I'm so happy because I thought it would be much harder to propagate them. ♥️

Thanks for this. I know it's been a while since you posted this, but I'm hoping you can clarify a few things. I was confused that she prepared the bark bed in the tray container but then planted the spores in the pot with the peat mix. Was the tray an alternate method, not used in this example? How'd the other sprouted examples get in the tray? Also, there was no mention of the time of year to grow these. I'm assuming that the spores will be ripe in late summer and since this process takes up to five months that it would be done indoors over the winter? Thanks for your show. Just discovered it. Great fun.

@skibidiboobop4 жыл бұрын
No, she demonstrated two ways of potting. The soil in the rectangular container is just peat moss, which would require perlite for proper drainage. The soil in the round one (which she didn't add perlite to) is a mixture of peat moss, potting bark, and sand which is well-draining enough to not necessitate the use of perlite! Additionally, this pot has drainage holes, which helps with drainage, while the rectangular tub did not. Seeing this, the spores need fine, well draining soil to germinate. I assume she showed two ways to demonstrate that so that the viewer does not feel limited to one way or the other. If you can get a mix that drains very well and is very fine, you should be able to grow them!

Japanese Climbing fern is wreaking havoc in the southeast of the US. It seems that the spores travel on lawnmowers and are disperse along the route of landscaper mowing paths especially along the sides of the road near ditches. The bad thing about Japanese climbing fern is that it is an invasive non-native whos spores can travel long distances and stay viable for a long time.
