So beautiful! I love ferns but am so scared to get them.

Not yet! I’ve been trying to propagate it to make it more fuller but its not liking it too much. I think I just need to stop fiddling with it.

Yeah I feel that with many hobbies too as well as gaming. I feel like there is a culture of, if you’re not doing something productive you’re wasting time. But in reality I think everyone needs a break. You can’t possibly be always productive, that ruins the whole point of relaxing!

It’s not easy to get away from either, but I’ve found that dedicating time to just not being productive and filling it with what you want to do is a good start. I work from home now so separating my day into chunks is even more important than ever because I my work space is also my PC gaming space.

Just try not to feel like you need to get something meaningful out of everything I guess. Sometimes it can just be fun.

To be fair, I live in a very sunny and pretty humid place and all my plants are super happy about that. It really helps a lot.

Thanks! Can’t wait to see them!

I’m glad it survived! And yeah once you find a good spot for it it really thrives and grows fast. And keeping the babies attached makes it look much fuller so Ive been keeping mine in there as a well.

Honestly it took a long time to figure out what it wants. It’s been a struggle but I found that it wants bright indirect light, consistent fertilizer and I never take off the babies so it hides the bare bottom of the stem. If you let the babies just grow it will make it overall much bushier!
