I will watch whatever content you want to put out, if it doesn’t speak to me right now, it will in the not-so-distant future. Thanks for having a realistic look at multi-plant caregiving, or lack of care, lol 😅
Hi Miro, I hope you will continue to show when things don't always grow well, we need to see the realistic side of plant growing. Love your trellises, they are so cute. ❤❤❤
Hi it is Timea here. I find that the trellis is more stable if you leave a bit longer feet to them. I usually put the trellis in first then the plant then fill up the pot. Once the plant grows, the roots will give even more stability to the trellis. Thank you for mentioning our group too. 😊 The name of it is Hoya Heads - UK/EU/Europe
Miro....I certainly got a 'kick' with your trying to position your Hoyas to your satisfaction on their shelves. And, thanks for the twisted wire trellis'. Your conversations with yourself are hilarious!
Nice trellis! 🥰 I was also discussing with Stephanie last week about DIY trellises (hers are sooo elegant) and tried some new ones as well. Looking pretty for me is the thing, and these ones do respect that main criteria for me. 😇 Just posted some of the models I tried so far, can be found on my IG profile. In case anyone has other ideas, please do share, this is a hot subject for me as my cuttings start to grow and I start to panic! 😁
Thanks for the positive vibes. Dealing the first time since 20 plus years of plant care with root mealybugs here. Could have been nice not to have made this experience… A question to you Hoya Hero Miro: I have some nice single nodes two leafers here since months or some even over a year with no new growth. Is there a trick to provoke them to grow? Roots and stem look fine to me. Treated them with net sulphur in case of mites sucking invisibly on some new developing parts. They are the tiny leaved ones like the inner variegated lacunosa, l. Asami, l. Poonsak, an yvesrocheri from Betsy and a D. ovata small form that all show the same behavior. Would be nice to hear your thoughts on this issue and know how you take care of such cuttings. Thank you in advance 🙏
20:41 what do you recommend in this scenario? I’m scared to buy 2” starter plants because if I repot I’ll shock them, if I keep them in their tiny pot I’ll over or underwater.
I unknowingly used unbuffered coco husk. The packages, when I bought them, did not say to buffer before using. After a few months, most of my plants that were in that mix started having issues. I went back to the product listing to look at reviews, and NOW the package states to buffer before using. 😕
I recently went to our local Pet Store (Fressnapf) and found great pine bark in the Reptiles Aisle! Bone dry, without any pests, in two different sizes! A little pricey, ca. 7€ per kg. But for the quality great.
Lmao 🤣 loved the decisions of where to put them and what color!! Thanks for the giggle. I think I will watch that part again 😊 Looks wonderful! Good Job ❤
Loving all your videos! You had briefly mentioned in one of your videos about hoya who dislike pon. Do you have any specifics? I grow in both lechuza pon and in a bark mixture. Yves rocherii didn't like pon but then, it doesn't like me looking at it either 😂
Thanks for sharing as always and bonus with the trellis tutorial. Where did you get those cute rectangular cover pots? They all look good in the dame pots by the way. 💚🧡😄
I noticed you said that wire is very expensive? A way to get virtually Free Wire is to get old cords from people, throwing out things like an old tea kettle, washer or dryer, anything with an electrical cord. Cut it off and then get a good knife, and scrape the rubber off, and you will get down to brass wire. Then if you got the items with cords free, or just ask to cut the cords off things someone is throwing out, all the wire costs is the time, it takes to get that rubber off, and you have Free Wire. Just a thought for you.
Suggestion, if the holes to insert your wire on your block were closer together, perhaps the twists might be more uniform throughout the length of your wire? I have not tried this, just an observation. I have also heard of people putting one end of the 2 wires together in their drill where the bit attaches and using a slow speed to twist the wires together. The block would still be helpful for the opposing ends and maybe you could anchor it with your feet as you work the drill if your wire is too long. You’ve inspired me to try this out 😊. I also use a soldering iron to burn holes into the sides of my pots to either insert the trellis wire for stability, or use a zip tie to anchor the trellis on the sides ❤
I have a smaller leafed inner variegated lacanosa from Knotdude and a longer leafed variant from someone else. It is very easy to see the difference when next to each other! I love them both! I also have asami clone 2 and she is beautiful!! All of yours looked great! I loved the trellis idea too! Beautiful!! Thanks for all the beauty!!❤
One more question. IF you were to do this project again, WHAT GAUGE would you use and why? This is so I can purchase the right material for the project that your showing here! Thanx in advance.
What an amazing idea for the trellis! The question I have and a few others out there I'm sure, what is the gauge/thick ess of the wire that your using?
