No it’s not….The reason is because regular soil holds too much of the water and will rot the roots of your plants. Strange but true!

Buy a bag of aquatic soil and plant in baskets. Java fern doesn’t grow in the substrate anyway
As previously mentioned the problem is the roots become anaerobic and rot – and stink!
