I loved all your hojas. I’m staring to collect hojas along with all the other house plants I have. I’m a plant person just like my mom was. I like the fact that I can see everything you were doing to your plants and you did not have all the words across the screen. You were very clear explaining what you were reporting. Thanks
I honestly cannot wait for all the spring plant chores videos! All the hoyas look so good in their new pots, I can't get enough of your lacunosa and it's blooms are just chefs kiss 😙🤌💚
I love Hoya repotting videos just to see the different soil mixes people use. It’s funny that I’ve had my Hoyas a little over a year and they’re twice as big if not bigger than yours I think because mine are outdoors with plenty of sun light. They grow like crazy and all have peduncles. Hoyas are so cute I love your collection
Spring is for plant chores, repotting is my favourite thing to do and watch actually. I drown all my plants in the sink or shower every couple months to make sure all the soil gets saturated, then water in its spot in between. I also wash pots to reuse them for a different plant to ensure there’s nothing spreading that you don’t want to the new plant like eggs or fungus etc.
So glad you liked it! As far as re-rooting goes, I've done it in water once before, so it definitely also works and is the most straightforward. Sphagnum moss is just my personal favorite propagating medium, and I usually put it inside of a clear, closed bin or my greenhouse cabinet--the plants seem to love the extra humidity and it helps them root faster!
I love Hoyas! Have soooo many but I treat them like I am still rooting them instead of actual plants. Seems scary to pot them up … I just need to try a few! Yours look so cute all potted up 💚🌱
Thank you! I use a mix of Happy Frog potting soil, orchid bark, coconut husk, chunky perlite, and worm castings :). I pretty much just eyeball the ratio until I'm happy with the consistency.
Hi. I watched you with your Hoya repotting. I was wondering what kind of chunky soil you were using for them? Thank you. I am also dealing with some pests on my Hoya. Do you use something as a preventative or do you treat them with anything for pest?
Of course! I mix up my own using Happy Frog potting soil, orchid bark, coconut husk, chunky perlite, and worm castings :). As far as pests go, I deal with mealy bugs on my hoya most often. I remove any that I can see using rubbing alcohol and a cotton swab, and then I regularly spray the plant with whatever I have on hand to treat the mealies (I like to rotate what I use, but what I currently have in the cabinet is Arber's bio insecticide). If it's a really bad infestation, I'll resort to bonide systemic granules. Hope that's helpful!
@@sproutswithjoy I knew by looking at you chunky potting mix that you made you own. I do the same, but I haven’t used any coconut husk and I haven’t tried chunky perlite. I will have to try the alcohol for Pest Control
that's a good tip! I might start doing that. I feel like a lot of the hoyas that have been shipped to me have wound up with dry rot within a few months even though I feel like I'm watering them enough 🙃
thanks for watching!! i hope your spring has been wonderful so far & that your plants are thriving 💖

The white pot/polyneura combo is chefs kiss. So cute!!

I love repotting and watching repotting! 💚✨
Thank you it’s so nice watching you, it’s looking me we are having a nice conversation.

I loved seeing you're polyneura. So many people make them seem like an almost impossible hoya to do well with.
I absolutely love Hoyas!!! I really enjoyed your video 💚
yay, I'm glad! thank you :)
I’ve been doing a lot of repotting too 😀🇨🇦
Very good job editing this video. Many repotting videos drag, but not yours. Liked it!
aww, I appreciate that!!
Great repotting video, enjoyed it a lot! Thanks for showing how dry rot looks like. Have you ever re-rooted in water?

Love ur Hoyas they r beautiful. Now how do u know what media to use when reporting for ur Hoyas?

thank you!! and yessss, do ittt! :)
Thanks for your video. Your hoyas are beautiful. Can you tell me what’s in your chunky soil? 🙂🪴

I stopped buying Hoyas rooted in soil and I’ve been much happier and the plants do better.
that's a good tip! I might start doing that. I feel like a lot of the hoyas that have been shipped to me have wound up with dry rot within a few months even though I feel like I'm watering them enough 🙃
@@sproutswithjoy yes, and trying to swap them over to a new media is the WORST with soil I find. Moss is ok, I can get most of it off.
