Hi and welcome . I don't know the plants you have but I can't leave a question totally unanswered. I suggest you cut out the fertilizer until you have some growth. You're obviously doing some research, which is good. I live in the too cold north-east and hope to be moving to the desert south-west in a year or two. I have no experience with the hot/humid central south. I hope someone comes to your aid quickly.

I don't have an answer for you either..sorry...but I just wanted to show you mine. I just water right out of my hose. My ferns see very little sun and they've always done wonderfully. Hope they work out for you. I sure do enjoy mine.

ok.......
Do you bring them inside for the winter?
I visited canada once many years ago. Visited the shrines up there. We loved the farms along the way.
Got us a motel in some french place, or cottage. The man only spoke french. We didnt understand a thing he said. ha ha
Went to a diner and they spoke english and we got them laughing pretty hard. Years ago. Came across from the canadian and american falls.
Was a nice trip.

Here's my Ostrich Fern almost completely unraveled. I don't bring them in for the winter. They stay out all year long.

I bought two Van Zycerden Nursery's bulb size #1 roots from Walmart,
planted them a month ago,
in a light mixture of Perlite (Schultz's), Sphagnum Moss (Better-Gro's),
............................................ http://www.schultz.com /................ http://www.sunbulb.com/pottingmedia.html
and Potting Soil (Markman's), lightly watered it with Plant Food (Peter's),
http://minerals.usgs.gov/minerals/pubs/commodity/peat/peatdir04.pdf ......................... http://www.petersplantfood.com /
http://www.iowadnr.com/waste/recycling/mulch/suppliers.html#county
and have been watering them lightly twice a week, once with plain tap water and once with the plant food.
Makes it kind of embarrassing to my family that my plant house decorations are turning out so plain, less our expectations of the growing larger leaves around the house.
