My plant went from this to this šŸ˜„. I donā€™t know why. I followed the the recommended care instructions from planta but nothing seems to be working. Any thoughts, recommendations, or suggestions??

    Eeekks itā€™s probably due to humidity dropping from the heating being on with winter and all

    I donā€™t know anything about this plant but I can tell you that the care scheduling for planta isnā€™t always super accurate especially with watering. I mainly use the water schedule as a reminder but I always check my plants before I water and I keep an eye on anybody who looks like they are about to be thirsty or are droopy. For the most part Iā€™ve gotten mine pretty accurate but it does change with the growth of plants. Hopefully someone can help you!

      I had realized that with my plants & gave them extra water sometimes. Thatā€™s good to know that itā€™s okay to go off the schedule they give you as needed. Thank you

      I always test soil moisture with a moisture meter. Depending on how wet the soil is, I'll "snooze" for 2 or 5 days thru Planta. You can also manually set a watering schedule in settings. So if you're noticing you're snoozing for 2 days every time planta suggests watering, then manually add 2 days to planta's suggested time between waterings and see if that better aligns with your plant's needs :)

      They have a feature that asks if your dirt is dry or wet when you snooze or complete a task early and if you answer that with yes itā€™s dry or gets it wet it automatically adjusts the schedule. Itā€™s also important to keep plant and pot sizes up today and also window distance and geology times because it all affects the schedule also.

      Iā€™ve filled all that out in detail. This happened with in the second day of me bringing the plant home. My dirt is moist. I use a grow light because I live in upstate NY & Iā€™m not getting as much sun

    Agree that it probably hates the heating. Looks like selaginella wants cool and humid. Suggestions: 1) can you move it to the kitchen or bathroom, if thereā€™s a window there? 2) if not, try a pebble tray. 3) a small terrarium would also be a gorgeous option!! 4) if itā€™s anywhere near a heating vent, get it away from there.

    Wow. I think I want one but it needs high humidity to survive. I just looked it up. And enjoys shade.

    Needs a cloche or terrarium to keep humidity up and stable.

    This is a plant that likes high humidity. Mist it several times a day, if you don't have a terrarium. You can literally pop it in a plastic bag to temporarily get it's humidity up.

    Frosty ferns do not like direct sunlight and will die if they are in front of any fans/ heaters. They also MUST be kept in a tray full of water at all times like a swamp plant.

      Mine was also a lot happier when it got mineral free filtered water, kind of like a carnivorous plant.
