How to use the Fern Soil Mix

Using the mix is easy!  start with removing as much of the old soil as possible. Gently squeeze the pot while holding it sideways to loosen up the plant. Run the roots under lukewarm tap water to remove the last pieces and bits. 

Also, remove any dead foliage that may still be on the plant using scissors. Now your plant is ready for its fresh Fern soil. Add a small layer of Fern mix at the bottom of the pot.

Place the plant in the pot, and slowly add Fern soil to the sides to fill it up. Make sure that the point where the roots meet the plant is just buried under the Fern soil. 

Lightly pat the Fern mix down into the pot. Make sure to water the Fern mix thoroughly after repotting, as this helps settle the mix and roots down.

Why the Fern mix works. 

As you might know, ferns can be quite the drama-queens. This fern mix retains moisture very well with the extra coco coir and worm castings, while still providing a good amount of drainage due to the perlite. The horticultural sand will make the mix drain even better and give it a more even texture, which supports the thin roots of ferns.

    The original habitat of the Fern plants

    Ferns grow in many different forests and prefer warm & damp areas of the Earth. They have thin delicate root systems and are very fussy in terms of watering. They prefer rich and well-draining soil that evenly distributes the water throughout their root system. 

    How to care for Fern plants

    To prevent ferns from drying out, make sure to give it ample humidity and keep the soil moist at all times, without becoming soggy! This is best achieved with proper drainage and water from the bottom (placing the pot in a container of water and letting the fern mix soak up the water).

    Ferns prefer bright, indirect sunlight and are very prone to leaf burn. Place them outside of the direct sun.

          At Sybotanica we not only want to make plants happy, but people happy as well. In our production team we exclusively hire people with a distance from the workforce, and help them rehabilitate to the normal working life.


          Take Peter for example:

          Peter has been with Sybotanica since the 1st hour, and has now been promoted to head of production & a permanent contract! Where he was the first employee, he now manages a team of 3 production workers.

          What makes this achievement even more impressive is that Peter achieved all this with only 10% visibility! 🕶️ With a few minor adjustments to his working environment, Peter is able to perform his job 100%.

          Peter has now been through two moves and knows all the ins & outs of Sybotanica. He can even feel by the potting soil which variety it is. That's quite a challenge with 16 different mixes!

          We are confident that Peter will keep production running smoothly in the coming years too! 💪

                      FAQ's

                      Not sure if the Fern mix is right for your plant?

                      Check out the SYBASoil Guide

                      How much Fern mix do I need?

                      Check out this pot volume calculator tool to calculate how much Fern mix you need.

                      When do I need to re-feed the soil?

                      The nutrients in SYBASoil will run out in ~6 months on average. We recommend refeeding by removing the top part of the soil and adding 10-20% of the volume with fresh worm castings.

                      How long does SYBASoil stay fresh?

                      You can store SYBASoil for about 2 years. Make sure to store it cool, dark and closed off. The effectiveness of the nutrients can degrade over the years. Simply add some fresh worm castings to give the soil new life.

                      When do I repot the plant?

                      We recommend repotting once any of these things happen:
                      - You see roots growing out of the bottom of the pot
                      - The soil dries very quickly between watering
                      - The plant is top-heavy and wants to fall over
                      - Roots are pushing the plant up and out of the container
                      - Every 1 to 2 years

                      How to recycle SYBASoil packaging

                      Our packaging can be recycled at your local plastic recycling facility.

                      You can also re-use it for storage, or leave a little soil and use it as a propagation box!

                      How to water plants grown on the Fern mix

                      Water only when the top 2-3cm of the soil is dried out. You can test this out by poking your finger in the soil to feel around.

                      Do not forget to keep the soil moist! If the soil dries out completely the plant will suffer

                      Prima voor mijn Knopvaren

                      Mijn Knopvaren lijkt het prima te doet in deze Varen mix potgrond. Het houdt de grond goed vochtig, wat belangrijk is voor een Knopvaren, en het houdt de grond eveneens langer vochtig, waardoor ik minder vaak water moet geven. Ik zou deze Varen mix potgrond zeker opnieuw kopen als ik meer nodig zou hebben en zeker ook aanbevelen voor Varens die een goed vochtig houdende grond nodig hebben!

                      I own 3 different types of ferns, all 3 truly enjoy this soil mix and since switching to Syba soil they tripled in size (Asplenium, Asparagus & Nephrolepis exalta blonde), highly recommend it 👌

                      Amazing Daria! That is a great result. Thanks for sharing.
