They are my most important and useful tools! Hahaha

Just revisiting your hoya videos. What I have been doing different, even though it's an extra step, is acclimating my cuttings separately and then adding them to the existing plant. I just bought the hoya polyneura albomarginata and this spring/summer I plan to do this method along with the heating mat thanks to you!

That is the proper way to add cuttings into existing pots....acclimate them first. I get lazy sometimes hahaha

Yea, a year ago it seemed like everyone was rooting in sphagnum and it was just "the best" way to root your cuttings. In the meantime, I was just killing cutting after cutting! Mostly I had issues with the roots, and sometimes the stems, ROTTING😰 I tried a few different things to stop that from happening, but it just wasn't working out, so when PERLITE propagation came along I was ready to try ANYTHING else!...Its been amazing! They root faster, the roots are stronger, and they're just as easy to switch over to soil!👍 Aside from a few plants that I root in water, EVERYTHING else get the perlite!❤

Hey Lauren....so sorry for the late response. I am so happy to hear that perlite has worked well for you. I think it is probably the best rooting medium out there for, like you said, stronger roots. Enjoyed the EVERYTHING (all caps) at the end!

LOL, you liked that?😆 no worries on response time. I hardly ever see comment responses right away. For some reason I don't always get the notifications right away, so sometimes I won't see a response for weeks!🤷

Unlike sphagnum, which retains too much moisture for the roots if the cutting is placed in soil, perlite will not hold excess moisture. So you can safely pot up your cuttings without attempting to remove it. So, you get less disturbance to your roots and less work for you--win-win in my book! Thanks for taking us on your journey. I feel I've learned quite a lot from watching. :)

Your explanation is perfect. So far all of my perlite prop cuttings have transitioned nicely to soil with little to no issues. Thanks so much for the support and kind comments.

I've actually rooted my polyneura directly in water and had 100% success rate. I think they're one of the easier hoyas to root!

I finally repotted my hoya polyneura cuttings at the end of last month. Unfortunately, I just discovered i lost two cuttings probably because I didn't water them in time. But my other cutting which has two growth points is doing very well. Well you live and you learn. Plus I still have 3 more cuttings propagating.

Ya, same thing happened to me with my cebu blue. It's a tough transition and even tougher if you add them to an existing pot.

Interested to see your update. I thought the main plant looked great on its own, and I understand your goal but to be on the safe side I think I would have started a new pot and then combined once they established their roots in soil. I just added pothos cuttings to an existing plant but the pot was large to begin with and had lots of available space so I did not move the main plant. I don’t know why pothos are not easy for me as they are for most people

If I'm moving cuttings to soil, I'll put the pot in a plastic container or bag to maintain the humidity before slowly acclimating to indoor humidity. It seems like the way to go when the cuttings grew roots in a perlite humidity chamber. 🤷‍♀️ I think it depends on the species though.

where did you find this beauty please?

Do you let this hoya dry out ALL the way before watering or water before that?

@EverythingPlants

Жыл бұрын

I let all my hoyas get bone dry before giving them water. They usually have thicker leaves, so they can tolerate a bit less watering

Could you not put the cutting into a different pot and then put it in with the mother plant after it’s more acclimated
