Homemade milk fern fertilizer. How to prepare it?
Milk contains large amounts of calcium and many other valuable nutrients. This one for ferns will restore the lush green leaves, strengthen the root system and stimulate the plant to grow faster. Lactoferrin contained in milk has fungicidal and bactericidal properties, thanks to which it will perfectly protect the plant against diseases. How to prepare fern fertilizer? It’s really simple.

Fern care
The fern likes moderately wet soil and average air humidity. It should be watered 1-2 times a week. In autumn and winter, you should also remember to spray the ferns (with soft water). Too dry air causes the flower to wither. On the other hand, if the leaves turn yellow and fall, the cause is excess water. If the leaves wither at the edges, it is a sign that the air is too dry. Let’s also remember that it is a plant that likes diffused light. Do not expose the flower pot to direct sunlight. However, a house fern left in a dark corner will waste away.
