How to Propagate Stenochlaena?
Primary propagation methods for stenochlaena include spore sowing and vegetative cuttings. Key factors for success are high humidity, consistent warmth, and a well-draining soil mix. Special considerations include the need for sterile conditions when sowing spores to prevent contamination. Propagation is moderately difficult due to the slow germination of spores and potential for rot with cuttings. Steps for propagation: 1) Collect spores/fronds or healthy stem cuttings, 2) Sow spores on a moist, sterile medium or plant cuttings in soil, 3) Maintain high humidity and warmth, 4) Allow spores to germinate or cuttings to root, keeping soil consistently moist, 5) Transplant young plants to individual pots once established.
