OP syl726 Member Joined: Dec 2003 Georgia	I live in a small duplex and my side of the porch is small. I have one fern towards the front and the other towards the side. The front gets two-three hours of full sunlight while the side gets little to none. So, each night, I switch sides with them so they're taking turns having their day IN THE SUN (except when it rains of course)Also, should I mist them? That seems to big among ferns from what I keep being told.
