Adiatum capillus veneris

[Aleksa]

I have this plant for about half a year. Now, new shots are drying before they open, and, if they open they have brown spots on the leaves. I can't be from low humidity, I think that this is fungus! What do you think?

I have the same problems with adiantum, they need constant moisture at the roots and i spray 7rl times a day!Not probablly what you want to hear! Judi

This plant has been growing excellent but suddenly, few weeks ago this started to happen. It is in a greenhouse so I dont think that this is caused because of low humidity.

Is it too much sun? I have one on my kitchen windowsill where it is in constant danger of getting fried. BUt they are apparently incredibly tough and practically impossible to kill, and I am convinced of this having had mine completely die back only to send out lots of new shoots just when I was convinced that it would have to go to the compost bin. I had also read that they are not that happy in overly bright light. Don't know if this really helps...

[Aleksa]

Noup. No sun at all it is in shade... Grrr....

[JUDIUK]

I think the temperature could be too high in a greenhouse, best in a shady bathroom. Judi

[Aleksa]

Yes... Possible... Temps were horrifying high....

Hi ,
They can be picky ,they don't like much Fert.then very weak and likes pure water rain or ro . also air circulation . Even then can throw a fit and go down hill .
I found one of them growing out of a hole in an orchid pot Gin

I might be showing my ignorance here (won't be the first time) but is that a gingko tree? I'm not familiar with the name you posted....
