On another video a woman who runs a nursery in Florida said that even those long Vines without any leaves will grow roots and grow into a small plant and not to throw them away. It wouldn't hurt to try
They do. I stole a bunch of those runners from my brother's plant. They were nearly dried up. Just cut, shoved in dirt, watered. They rooted. Or shove in cup of water until roots sprout. I've kept doing so. Cut, shove in dirt, water. Lol
I love how easy it is to root these. They're beautiful plants too. Brother's plant had a bunch of vines that were all over the place. So I cut them down, cut pieces (some only 3"), shoved them into a small cup of dirt, and watered. Now they're all over the house. Personally I snip a lot of the vines to do that as they grow. Flowers aren't as much interest for me as the plants. I love the leaves.
Love your video's! I especially like how you explain why and how you are doing certain things. I look forward to seeing more of your video's. I hope to get some of your grow systems soon.
I am so grateful for such a detailed & helpful video! I’ve used your technique for some hoya cuttings but I wanted to confirm the amount of KLN you use since the bottle suggests less. In the video you say to mix 2 tablespoons of KLN per gallon whereas the bottle suggests 1-2 teaspoons per gallon. You sound like you know what you’re doing and have great results so I hope to hear your feedback!
another awesome video, thank you, please keep them coming! How about transplanting adult hoya to hydro? Are the rules any different in different temperature/humidity zones?
I understand that it is necessary to let the reservoir dry before watering, but would the kratky method work here for Hoyas since there are air roots? Thanks.
I bought a weyettii I paid 20 bucks for a really small plant and only noticed thet it was rotting, I have it in soil, I get the best rooting results by barely watering ,..does that make sense ? I'll take advice dont wanna lose the plant
@@thehydroponicsguy2379 I have looked through a lot of videos about propagating Hoyas and you explain so clearly how to propagate this plant. I was lucky to buy some plants for 2 dollars. Do you have a video on propagating Epidendrums?
Hi there, thank you of rthe video. As much as it looks easy, I don't have a prbs with this hoya. However, how would you propagate the Hoya Indian Rope Carnosa? A bit tricky there....
What Size pot should I place 1 cube in once the roots are established? If I just have 1 cube, should I use a 2in hydro pot or the 3 in? (I have 3 long stemmed hoya rosita cuttings now and im thinking of putting them in 1 cube) Thoughts? @TheHydroponicsGuy
Hi I've just watched your hoya hydro technique. Can you remove a young hoya cutting from soil and transfer to the leca, clay pebbles? Cheers Kate New Zealand
Good hack to put the cuttings in a cube. I have cutting all over my house in plastic cups. I like the transparency but using the cubes is a long term solution that I can really use. Good job.
I bought the rock wool cube, did everything that’s shown on your video. But my beautiful Hoya cuttings some of the leaves are turning yellow. I then added them into a ziplock bag. During the day I will open the bag up (give it some air) then at night closing the bag up. Please help me, explain to me what I’m doing wrong. I don won’t to lose my beautiful healthy Hoya cutting.
A yellow leaf or two is normal. Don't go into panic mode and keep changing stuff. You'll do more harm than good. My advice: 1. Make sure the rockwool is drying out between waterings. 2. Not sure the ziplock bag is a good idea. Try building a tent over cuttings - doesn't have to be air tight - in fact a little fresh air is good. 3. Keep cuttings in a warm place. Windowsills are too cold this time of year. Hope that helps! JH
I apologize for the delay. It's not unusal to get a coupe of yellow leaves in the beginning. Be sure to allow enough time for the cubes to dry out between waterings.I'm interested to hear how the plastic bags worked! you can email me direct at jh@easygrohydro.com
