How to fertilize Maidenhair Spleenwort

Most potting soils come with ample nutrients which plants use to produce new growth.
By the time your plant has depleted the nutrients in its soil it’s likely grown enough to need a larger pot anyway.
To replenish this plant's nutrients, repot your Maidenhair Spleenwort after it doubles in size or once a year—whichever comes first.

Holes in leaves Hello! I am new to plants and just received my first one from CostaFarms in the mail. Could anyone kindly tell me if the little holes in the leaves are from a pest or from being in a box traveling in the cold? Thank you! #BirdsNestFern

Yellowing Leaves My fern's leaves have been yellowing the past couple weeks and I'm struggling to figure out what the issue is. I've had it for at least a year and have never had concerns with it. It's in a spot with bright, indirect light. I think the issue is overwatering, but I'm honestly unsure! Thanks :) #BirdsNestFern
