      Hello Mariah. Robyn has been growing these commercially for many years and certainly knows her Maidenhair ferns better than anyone else we know. It was the pruning back that surprised us, however it works......

      Hello Joan - Re-potting and pruning is something that is often neglected, so if you follow the demo, you should have good new growth.

    Do you use any specific potting mix when repotting maiden hair ferns? Worried that whatever i use to repot it may stay soggy too long instead of evenly moist or even dry out too quickly.

    • @johnnyAGardening
      @johnnyAGardening  5 лет назад +6

      Hello Vin. Good comment. This all depends on the potting mix. So with normal potting mixes from the big stores, it may be wise to add some perlite. I will ask Robyn what her actual mix is and post it in the notes.

    Do Maidenhair Ferns do any better in a more shallow pot vs a deeper pot?

    • @johnnyAGardening
      @johnnyAGardening  4 года назад +3

      If you check our 9:34 in the video you will see this is a medium to deep pot. The trick is not to have the pot to big (wide ) for the plant.

    Can you trim the roots if it gets over crowded inside the pot?

    • @johnnyAGardening
      @johnnyAGardening  4 месяца назад

      Hello Raquel, we would suggest :
      Potting the plant into the next sized pot.
      HOWEVER if you just really like the pot you are growing it in then consider dividing the plant.
      Both of these methods provides the plant with access to fresh potting mix while still keeping a root system in proportion to the size of the crown or fronds.
      We will ask Robin (our expert on ferns) about this and get back to you ASAP.

  • @cindyhawkins7293
    @cindyhawkins7293 2 месяца назад

    Wouldn't you put the fertilizer around the sides so the new roots will get to it, instead of putting it on the bottom? the water will just wash it away before the roots have a chance to grow and get to it.

    • @johnnyAGardening
      @johnnyAGardening  2 месяца назад

      See 03:04 The plant when repotted is sitting on top of the fertiliser so the roots have access to it immediately.

    I have a 40 year old Lace fern...I could never cut it so severely as this. I had a nursery for over 35 years. Sorry, but I had to be honest. I would just clean up the brown parts not the green.

    • @johnnyAGardening
      @johnnyAGardening  2 года назад +2

      Sometimes you just need to be brave. Robyn has had a specialist fern nursery for many years and this works well for her and many others, you get a complete flush of new growth. however others do have different methods.

    Why do you need to wear gloves when handling potting mix?

    • @johnnyAGardening
      @johnnyAGardening  3 года назад +4

      Mainly to avoid the possibility of a number of bacteria entering the body through cuts, scratches and grazes. Also to avoid spider/and and insect bites as well as just to keep your hands clean. You should also wear a mask to avoid inhaling dust that cary diseases such as legionnaires disease.
