Subject: [ferns] Best fern propagation


At Yahoo-treefern were also some msg posted about the best environment 
on fern propagtion ([treefern] Challenge, [treefern] Challenge-Frank). Not
soil-mixture. Environment: best temperature, humidity of soil, 
air-humidity exposure to light.
My experienec on treeferns is, that they love to be at least sometimes 
quite warm (around 300C). I placed some of my boxes on a 
self-constructed propagation trolley 
(http://www.baumfarn.at/treefern/viewtopic.php?t=716). The boxes over 
the tube get some heat it. You can touch it easily anytime with your 
hand, without getting ever burned, just feel nice warm. But don't know 
realy the temperature. Another posted, that this is true, but as soon as 
some prothalia are developing it needs light too.

What your experience on this? Esspecially on growing tropical or 
semi/sub-tropical ferns?

Thanks
peter
