Re: Growing ferns from spores

Just curious and ignorant:
What if you cut off a branch of a mother plant (assuming it's the 
female form I suppose) with ripe seed and placed it on moist sterile 
soil, covered it with plastic, and kept it similar conditions as the 
spores would experience in the forest? Would the spores germinate?
By the way, how do you tell a male fern from a female if you don't 
already know which kind you have (assuming a friend gave you some off of 
their wooded property)?
