That old lady at the arboretum said my watering schedule was killing my ferns

She was right about overwatering after I admitted I was soaking them every morning for 3 months straight, so which side are you on - do you stick to a strict calendar or just water when the soil feels dry?

Read somewhere that root rot is basically drowning your plants in love. Finger test in the soil beats any calendar.

Overwatering plants is just another version of the same mistake people make with everything from friendships to food prep. We think more attention or stuff will fix things, but usually it just makes the problem worse. Keep your hands dirty and your brain quiet, that's the real trick.
