Ferns can grow in hardened lava by utilizing the small crevices and pockets in the volcanic rock where soil and organic matter can accumulate. These areas provide essential nutrients and moisture, allowing fern spores to germinate and establish roots. Over time, the ferns contribute to the soil development by breaking down the lava rock and adding organic material through leaf litter, further enhancing their own growth and that of other plant species. This process helps create a more hospitable environment for diverse plant life to thrive in volcanic areas.

How hot is hardened lava?
Hardened lava typically ranges from about 600 to 1200 degrees Celsius (1100 to 2200 degrees Fahrenheit), depending on the type of lava and cooling conditions.
Compared to the particles in a hardened lava sample the particles in a liquid lava sample?
The particles in a hardened lava sample will be solidified and compacted, while the particles in a liquid lava sample will be molten and in a flowing state. The hardened lava particles will have a crystalline structure, whereas the liquid lava particles will lack a fixed arrangement due to their high temperature.
Do ferns need water to grow?

What would you do if you want to grow new ferns?
