- Select a location within your setup where the Elkhorn Fern can grow and spread. Remember, this fern is an epiphyte, so it prefers to grow on surfaces rather than in soil.

- Carefully extract the fern and the Sticky Soil from the packaging, using a spoon, your fingers, or by cutting the PLA packaging for easier access.

- Place the fern and the Sticky Soil on your chosen surface—walls, glass, wood, stone—the Sticky Soil will adhere to it, giving you complete planting freedom.

- Cover the Sticky Soil with moss to help retain moisture, promoting healthier plant growth and reducing maintenance.

- Maintain a warm, humid environment for the Elkhorn Fern, providing bright, indirect light whenever possible.

- Water the fern when the top layer of the Sticky Soil begins to feel dry, but avoid waterlogging.

- Trim the fern as needed to control its growth and maintain your desired aesthetic.

- After planting, remember to compost the PLA packaging, promoting a greener, more sustainable environment.
