I have a large boston fern that is four foot tall and five foot across. The plant is producing lots of new frons the problem is there are about five frons that the tips are withering aboutfive inches from the tip this seems odd to me what am I doing wrong. I water about three times a week it takes about a gallon. and i use a small dose of miracle grow at each watering. I spray for pests about once or twice a month.
Boston Fern novice I have large Boston Fern four foot tall and five wide. Have some frons wilting about four inches on the tips only about five at this time. I water about three times a week,there is a half dose of fertilizer every time, The fertelizer I have been using is miracle growand it takes about a gallon of water to water thoroughly. I mist daily and treat for pests about every two weeks with a house and garden spray. This is the first time I have somewhat sucessfully kept a Boston Fern and I would desperately want to keep it pretty as it it was a gift. please help if you have a sugestion
Hey donnoep, I merged your two posts here. Just wondering if it's only 5 fronds, are they all in the same spot? Maybe too close to a heat source or cold window?
Rima I was wondering about that.I can hardly lift the thing but from the top feels pretty thick wheb I check the moisture......How do I go about transfering something this big tie the fronds in a upright position like they come to the store???????
