My maidenhair fern is all brown. What did I do wrong

My immediate guess is humidity. Maidenhair ferns need suuper high humidity. 💨🪴 To increase it you can get a humidifier, group with other plants so they make a small humid biome between them, or use a “pebble tray” which is simply a dish or bowl full of water and pebbles you put under your plant that will evaporate over time and increase humidity that way. The second thing I notice is that your pot has no drainage holes (which can cause root rot easily because water is stuck inside with no escape 💧) If you really like the pot but would like to fix the draining, you can buy another pot with holes OR a plastic nursery pot and put it inside that one and move your plant into the inside pot so theres space for water to escape :) I’m not certain that the pot is the problem, but it could be in the future (and maidenhair ferns are imfamous for being wayyy more forgiving when the humidity is higher 😅) Hope this helps!
