# Just repotted today with general indoor plant soil. Looks healthy but…

_Posted by NiaDaPlantMom on 2024-03-12_

Just repotted today with general indoor plant soil. Looks healthy but have some leaves snapped on the spine. In a north facing window as of today. Was currently in a south facing window. Any solutions for that? Snip them or leave them?

I would leave them 🤷‍♀️  
I have a hurricane fern which is pretty much the same as the birds nest, or literally the same.  
I’m not the best with it tho tbh

I usually clip mine off if they break like that. I'm not an expert but I generally just figure it won't benefit the plant to leave the broken leaf on
