I liked seeing you explore the plant and actually explain what you were seeing. Hearing your thought process may help me think out issues with my own plants. Thanks.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Love how you problem solved the yellow leaves. I’ve been looking for a similar video because my Hoya has been doing the same. Thank you for this!
Thanks and it seems to have worked. No more yellow leaves on this plant. This video was filmed about a month ago. Good luck with your hoya and keep me posted!
@@EverythingPlants I removed the yellow leaves like you did. I purchased a cutting (first time) so I’m assuming my Hoya was getting acclimated to the soil.
I had the same problem with mine. In my case was overwatering. Now I only water enough so the pot is moist but never let water come through the drainage hole. Since then it's gave me new growth.
Awesome. Overwatering is quite possible, but I haven't changed anything then I normally do. This video was filmed a while ago and it is doing well....no more yellow leaves.
I am by no means an expert, but I think this was an issue that is 100% related to the soil being primarily amended with perlite. If you put some lava rocks and charcoal in the bottom, then amend the soil with orchid bark, it should be headed in a much better direction. I am still trying to master calcined clay and worm castings, but that could help as well.
Interesting....thanks Jason
Great video Jeff! I never think to pull the plant out of the pot and check the roots. I always learn so much from your videos
Glad to help! If a plant isn't doing well I always check the roots as a process of elimination lol
Great learning experience on Hoyas! Appreciate all your tips and thoughts on how to troubleshoot Hoyas. Very enjoyable. Well done! 👌🌿🥰💚
Thanks Peggy!
I had a different problem with mine.. one stem with leaves were getting wrinkled and dry looking.. I noticed some roots sitting above the soil so I added some soil about 2 tbsp on that spot and voila! 😊
I’ll keep this in my Hoya folder for reference in the future! Great video, thanks 😊
I don't know if you heard me say that in this video as well....it looked like roots were poking out the top. Whatever I did seemed to have work as there is no more yellow leaves!
i just did the same thing 4 days ago because of the yellowing of the leaves and it just looked sad. I put him in a smaller pot new soil gave him a good watering I do bottom water this hoya well I bottom water most of my plants anyway hes on my front porch and hes got new growth coming out baby leaves looking so good.I know your hoys is going to love its new pot and soil too and you will also get new baby leaves. Thanks for sharing this with us Lisa A from Chattanooga Tn.
This was filmed about a month ago and it is doing well in the new pot. No new yellow leaves on the plant. Thanks for this comment and watching my video!
Such a beautiful Hoya. I’m also paranoid about bugs for this one too. Good thing to repot it! We may not know excatly what is the issue but there’s many things worth trying.
Whatever was the issue is no longer an issue.
Soil is getting old after 2 years, it loses all the nutrients. You made the right decision.! 🌴
And it is doing great since the video!
Nice video. Like how you problem solved. Can't wait for update. Only gardner I know who uses a pencil for all jobs. Lol. Keep up good work
This was filmed about a month ago and so far no new yellow leaves! I'll post a picture on my community tab on my channel. Thanks for watching!
My Hoya is doing the same thing. I'm hoping it's cause of the season change and the Hoya is ready for warmer weather, maybe, but you're trouble shooting is very helpful!
Also, I just put it in new soil and put it in a different pot also, so hopefully, new soil is the answer
Pretty plant
I am having the same problem, mine has lost 2, yellowing as well, I have not found any ugly creature so I am doing what you did, I am changing the soil and the pot!! Thank you for this video!!
This was filmed about a month ago and no new yellow leaves. Good luck with your repotting!
I think you made all the right calls on this one
There are no more yellow leaves since filming. Thanks for watching!
So happy I found your channel
Awesome and welcome!!!
Try giving it a good soak. Then put into fresh soil. Then water in with a solution of Seasol. You will be happy with the results cheryle
Check your PH levels, very Important for Hoyas. Cheryle
Same thing just started happening to my compacta! I have mine hanging outside and it's been growing SO well this summer, but just this week I noticed some yellowing leaves at the top of the planter like yours🤔 If it gets worse I'll be taking it out of its pot to check it out, but I always get nervous about disturbing Hoya roots unless I absolutely have to cuz they typically DON'T enjoy it😬🤞💚
I don't have any more yellow leaves on mine. This video was filmed about a month ago, so I'd say it fixed the issue.
I have a baby plant I bought a couple of months ago and I cannot seem to find her happy spot! She is outside rn bc its hot and humid down here in Louisiana but she keeps showing me a yellow leaf or a leaf that looks puckered!? Im scared to over water her bc I just did that to a string of turtles and LOST ALOT OF PLANT!! Bummer!! :( I'm new to Hoyas so I'm really trying to find her happy place!! I want mine to grow big and strong!!
I have the same problem with my Hoya chelsea. I couldn’t figure out why the yellow leaves… I’ll check my soil. Thanks Jeff
Good luck Anne!
Great job getting down to the "root" of the problem. LOL I made a funny!?! NOT!😁 This is a plant on my wishlist at the moment, so it helps to know beforehand how to troubleshoot certain plants. Thanks, Jeff!
I laughed at that very clever and funny joke. Well done! 🤣
@@EverythingPlants LOL 😁 Thank you! 🤭
This is also happening with mine and I’ve been very concerned. I see others are in the same boat. It’s all happening to us at once which is weird. I moved mine to a higher spot on the window ledge hoping more light may be the answer.
Ya, I am stumped at how many are having the same issue. The new soil seems to have done the trick for me. I'm also going to start cutting back on the amount and frequency of watering as fall approaches (slower growth)
I had a similar problem with my rope plant. the biggest issue was the terra cotta pots absorbing all of the water before the plant could. I have now replaced all terra cotta with plastic or glazed pots.
Interesting....I'll keep my eye on this. It's been good so far since the repot.
Nice plant
thanks
I have this kind of problem but a lot of leaves are also yellowing e they’re a little soggy. I noticed a bug similar to cow isopods in the soil. Are these bugs bad for hoya’s soil? I did some research on them and found they’re good for ecosystems but I didn’t really understand if it’s just for terrariums or not
Nice upload
Thanks! I am glad you enjoyed it.
Do you have a link to the soil you use?
💚
👍
Also, what about a fungal drench in addition to the new looser soil? Just in case.
So far this seems to have done the trick with just a change of soil. No more yellow leaves....
@@EverythingPlants Hoorah!!
I have same problem
Since your Hoya plant expried. Do you think that you could cut off the stems before it completed died and progated them in the pertlite? At least you would have new starts for a new plant. I want to try to keep my plant for several years to be a show piece. Someone made a comment about one of their stems was getting real wrinkle and the roots where showing. I had that happen to my plant, I put my soil mixture on top, did not seem to help. Next time I am gong to take that stem out and progated, cut it up if it is too long, and see if I can safe it.
I have done this to other hoyas (Chelsea) that was declining, so I chopped it and placed the cutting in perlite. It's now back in soil after rooting nicely. I think it was in my most recent propagation video
Hi there. I came across your video. I have been searching online how to troubleshoot because mine has been growing well but all of a sudden the leaves started turning yellow for at least 2 weeks now. I have been inspecting if there were bugs or mites. I saw millie bugs 3 months ago and I immediately quarantined the plant. I bath the leaves with alcohol/liquid dish soap/water concoction for 3 times a week. I did not change the soil because I did not see any on the soil. I bathe the plant for about 2-3months when I did not find anymore signs of the millie bugs. About 2 weeks ago, the leaves are turning yellow. I should take it repot with new soil and hoping that it will resolve the problem. She is hanging under my picnic umbrella. I did not change the way I water her. **i'm crossing my fingers**
Hey Sarah. It can be so frustrating not knowing what the plant isn't doing well. I guess just keep an eye on it and see how it does....but for me I like to peek at the roots.
Can you please help me with my Hoya plant. My plant is about 20 years old, has long stems that I have wrapped around the curtain rod. My problem is that the leaves are turning yellow and falling off which make large empty spaces on the vine. Now I noticed that the leaves look crinkly. I have never changed the original planter and I only water it when the soil is dry. I absolutely love this plant. Any advice you can give me would be greatly appreciated. Thank you
Hello Amy. Feel free to send a picture of the plant to my Instagram so I can see it. Sounds like it is root bound and needs new soil. I think you will most likely have to trim it up and repot it to get it to flourish again. It's tough to give information without seeing the plant, but im guessing that is the reason.
Absolutely gorgeous Hoya---that is big coming from me, someone who is trying to understand the hoya thing. I purchased a few unrooted hoya cuttings a few months back. I am not familiar with the names, but I have this one and it will likely be my favorite (when it actually grows!) Is this a faster or slower growing hoya? Mine has a teeny tiny new growth, and one of the other hoyas is actually putting out something. Is patience a big thing with this? Yours is huge!
I really hate to say this.....I got fed up with this plant and it was under watered...oops
@@EverythingPlants Oh boy, did it go ahead die on you? Or did you give it away?
@@vickiandKi dead 💀 🤣
@@EverythingPlants 😥😬
I want to say I have patience, I am a genealogist and you have to have patience to find information.
One day I will get the watering method figure out, to where I will not kill my Hoya Carnosa Compacta. I did not realize that you need a shallow pot. I just reppoted mine this spring, which I propably did not need to. I want to try to leave it alone for a couple more years. I have not had any blooms on it yet. And it is about two years old.
💚🌿
👍
I made the mistake of watering mine before we went away for the weekend, I may lose the whole thing. I repotted in a chunky mix but I dunno if it’ll make it
Oh no.... I hope it survives
How is your compacta doing? My H burtoniae just started dropping some lower leaves but only 1 branch out of a main stem. I just recently repotted it 3 weeks ago so I’m hoping it’s just stress. If it continues dropping I might have to pull it out too
It did well after the video. But due to unforseen circumstances...not caring about it haha it died 😅
@@EverythingPlants oh no!
@@EverythingPlants You think it died because, it did not get water? I try to learn from others mistake. I have one Hoya Carnosa Compacta for about two years. I have lost two. This one I am going to try my hardest not to over water it. I really think that was what I was doing. I did finally learn that bottom watering is the best, the roots will grow down. I just recently got in three small Varigated Hoya Carnosa Compacta. I really want to keep them alive. I am not going to take them out of their pot until I see roots comming out of the bottom. Is that a good Ideal, or should I just repot it next spring or when I see new growth on it.
I am going to go home and try this on my rope.............mine is yellowing also , but it could be getting too much sun. I will let you know how it turns out.........
Yes....please do.
I had the same problem with my Hoyas but mine was due to root rot
That or it being root bound was my thinking at first, but now I'm kind of leaning to the soil. This was filmed a while ago (month ago) and as of today there is no new yellow leaves
If it smells its probably root rot... did you put any hydrogen peroxide on the roots?
That makes sense lol and no I didn't. So far it has done well with no new yellow leaves.
Do any one grow your Hoya up on pole (it grow n wild on trees ground)
Do you put anything over the drain hole?
For pots with larger drain holes I usually place a river rock (from my yard lol) covering the hole.
Do you have an update video for this Hoya Carnosa compacta ?
I will look back, but I don't believe I do. I never did get any more yellow leaves. The plant isn't looking the greatest though...I cut it back to one stem.
@@EverythingPlants Why did you have to cut it back to one stem? It look so healthy besides the yellow leaves. Is there something else we need to know?
Is their an update on this plant?
Dead. It was doing well for awhile and then I just let it go
I like the ideal of just pulling it out of the pot, after no pests where found. I look at this way, let the plant died of slow death, or try to help it out.
Exactly
What happened to this plant?
Dead ☠️
@@EverythingPlants RIP. Do you know what it was? My hoya is going through something as well and I am taking inspiration from your vids
@@vic5221 honestly I'm not too sure. After this video I just forgot about this plant and it definitely got underwatered and continue to decline
What is the update?
I went back into the videos and couldn't find an update....not sure if I did one haha. Since the video there has been no more yellow leaves!
if you bottom water the roots will grow down
Yup! I do this with many of my plants too!
