I bought a bird’s nest fern over a month ago, and now it's starting to develop brown spots on the leaves. I didn’t know that you’re not supposed to water the nest, but it still looks healthy. What am I doing wrong? I also realized that I overwatered it a few times and haven’t done so since. What am I doing wrong and can do to make the leaves healthy again?
I have this plant. Some brown spots are normal but that does look a bit stressed. Don’t over water. Let the soil dry out.

Just quick tip, your best is looking a bit dark, don’t water the nest 💕 I did that with mine at the beginning and thank god this plant is so resilient! If you change the water schedule and keep the nest dry, it will recover amazingly quick!
