I'll keep everyone updated on the Hoya progress. Will say the thumbnail shot for this video was taken approximately 1 week after the new repot and fertilize and the leaves have already started to green up so nicely.

I need to add a Hoya to my collection. Thank you Summer Rayne Oakes! 👍🏼❤️🪴

I recently came into possession of my grandmother’s 54 year old Hoya carnosa which has to her knowledge never been repotted… without saying too much I needed the tips in this video!

I have never seen a root bound Hoya! Wow those roots! That is such a beautiful full plant.

Getting the perlite a bit wet before working with it prevents that fine dust from floating around. I just spay it a bit with a spray bottle. Thank you for a great video. Hoya obovata is on my wish list 😍.

Sorting out root-bound plants is so satisfying, even though it takes ages! I hope this one makes a full recovery, I'm sure it will in your care.

So, each time I watch your show, I learn something new and very helpful, plus I get a reason to go shopping for plant care products and the best potting soil. This is a happy situation that you encourage me, and ultimately improve the health of my plants. Thanks for sharing your knowledge and your love of plants.

Wow those roots! Can’t wait to see how it looks next year!

This was so helpful. Showing how to nurse a borderline sick root bound plant back to thriving condition gave me the confidence I needed to transfer my small collection into the right soil medium, the right pot type and size and the best lighting for them. Summer has almost arrived here in Florida so now is the time. Hoyas like summer in Florida. Thank you Summer for putting this all together.

Hi Summer! Thank you so much for sharing how you were able to loosen the roots on your root bound Obovata! It was very interesting and helpful!

Amazing how over stressed plants show under growth and just decline on health in good time. Thank you for sharing this with us. Very informative. Love Maria Montreal Canada 😻🌺

For epiphytic Hoyas, it doesn't require any soil/rock particles, but bark like medium. I'm from the Philippines btw, we use purely coco husk/chunks.

Thanks girl! My hoya is ROOTBOUND to the MAXXX & I was freaking out because the roots are beautiful but weren't getting any nutrition. You helped a lot!

Definitely would love an update. What a beautiful plant. I need one💚🥰

Hello from subtropical Queensland Australia. All my hoyas are in small terracotta pots with orchid mix pumice and some sphagnum moss and are allowed to express their epiphytic character growing in palms , cordylines and assorted trees. They grow with their epiphytic orchid friends including vanilla and they flower constantly. They get the morning sun and afternoon shade. One is just about to grow into constant sunshine and I now can’t wait to see if the leaves yellow or if the Hoya starts to grow downwards. Seems so unfair others have to battle growing hoyas, but we don’t have daffodils tulips and autumn leaves.

I'm happy to watch your work, you're a real garden lover, awesome sharing!

Super helpful. I got a large Hoya obovata this weekend with the same issue. I purchased it because I want to repot it and propagate it, I am sure it's root-bound and definitely needs time to get back to the lovely darker green . Thank you!

I love watching your channel. You have taught me so much, never stop. I recently am into Hoya's. So tell us all you know.

I do like this video, don’t get me wrong. Your doing a great job on educating the public with plants and problems.

0:09 seconds in and I’m super happy because I’m so conditioned to the music intro for your videos it now signals instant plant-happy. 😂😂😂

Love your videos. The hoya looks happier already.

Thank you Summer Rayne. Just got a Hoya from my father.

Thanks for sharing. I need to rewatch your fertilizer episode. I'm always unsure about the appropriate fertilizer.

Yeeessss, Love this video. Very good specimen for teaching. Really hope your Obovata bounces back in no time. BTW this plants is a fighter, a survivor. would you do a follow up video please? When you got the chance. Thank you in advance

Atumn is typically a good time to transplant indoor plants ? Noticed nodules on the flower branch were those roots to be propagated or does this plant have to be divided. could listen to you all day long … and I do on the road keeps me calm cause I drive for work and always on guard. you really do it for me the knowledge you share seems endless and would love to find a plant lady of my own to join in my love for flora. completely fell in love after this one my gut tells me Ill be falling back on your channel for advice once I curate my apartment with some A+ varietals / cultivars (dying to get a prayer plant ) speaking of prayers I pray you are always in a positive place with optimism and good people that are true friends that guide you in the right direction so you achieve the goals you set forth effortlessly seek fortune with a pure intent and you might find yourself with abundance. love you… night be good lol think you got that covered tho!!!

Question should I repot my Hoya carnarosa now that it’s winter in Montana or wait till spring?

Hi just found your channel an enjoyed this Video. I am a new Hoya owner of a little Mathilde. So cute. Won't be repot for 3 to 6 months but have a fertilizer Dya Gro Foliage 9-3-6 I was going to use. Hope it's OK. With Cactus Soil and extra perlite and bark. Thanks dear.

That poor plant was really pitiful but I’m sure it will bounce back in time. I don’t understand why someone would sell a plant in such a state. Good luck.

Loved this video! Very interesting to see you troubleshooting your plant! My obovata is a lighter green as well (not root bound), i have it growing under a grow light in a cabinet - do you thing that might be a reason why it lost its deep green colour? I live in bc and we don't have a lot of sun outside of summer months so having it under a grow light might mean it potentially won't have enough

@summerrayneoakes

That would be plausible to think the light has something to do with it. Only way to know is to experiment further. I have a Philodendron and the leaves that grow towards the light lose their chlorophyll (or it degrades) and those leaves are often lighter.

Great informative video Summer, as always. Have you ever used a Hydrogen Peroxide mix to loosen the rootball? I've been reading that it airiates the soil, sterilises it, and its great for getting rid of a host of different bugs. Anyone have thoughts on H/P?

Does using H2O2 make much of a difference on soil porosity? I don't know. I'll have to do more research on that. I'm sure, however, that it would make a nice disinfectant, but whether it disinfects both beneficial and non-beneficial bacteria/organisms, I don't know.

Wonderful video, Summer. Can i cut off some roots before i repot my overgrown rootbound hoyas?

Where did you buy it from?! I love it.

I have a burros tail in really hard peat mix.. that desperately needs a repot! it’s so delicate any tips??

Does anyone know if the type of soap used matters? I have a very similar root bound obovata I want to save. 🙏

This a great standard Hoya mix. I would love you too do a video on the range of Hoyas and their varied Hoya soil mixes. Something we discuss a lot in the Hoya hunter community. Some like a acidic soil and some love alkaline. I have some just in pon.

Your guess is as good as mine!

Not sure what happened, but I literally lost about 4 hoyas...😒🤷🏾‍♀️. I've given up on them. But still admire them from a distance. 🤦🏾‍♀️

I have a feeling that I did a really bad thing cutting the hoya vine shorter. I see them everywhere with those vines hanging, but still I couldn't resist, and cut it. I'm learning now that potential flowers would grow off those vines? Should I really worry?

I would immediately take this Hoya out of its new pot and repot it into a conical shaped container. If you keep it where it is and the root system grows to the edges you won't be able to ever remove it again due to the pot being wider at the bottom than the top. ... I have made that mistake myself and had to break the pot! 😪💔

With these pots it can help to let the plant dry out completely, the roots shrink up and might let you squeeze them out

I use coco. is it good?

How long would it take a Hoya to go rootbound? 1yr??

Beautiful Plant 💐💐 new friends 😊🌻❤️

Did you put it back in to the same pot?

If they are sterilized, I wouldn't hesitate.

I always thought if you change the soil out you shouldn’t fertilize right away since the new soil is full of nutrients already. Also, orchid potting mix is acidic right? Wouldn’t it be too much for a Hoya?

@summerrayneoakes

2 жыл бұрын

The orchid bark mix doesn't have any additional nutrients other than aged pine bark, horticultural charcoal, perlite. It's more of a neutral pH because they add limestone to adjust it. Over time, as the components, like the bark, begin to break down, they'll release some nutrients, but consider that a long, long, slow release. With an organic fertilizer, you won't have any issue either. I typically would be winding down on fertilizing about now anyway, but this plant was clearly without access to nutrients for a while for its root-boundedness, so that's the decision that felt right to me. I will say that the thumbnail shot was done about a week after and the leaves have already started to green up nicely. I think if I give it just a few more weeks, it'll be a lot better. I still want to possibly add some magnesium as well.

@@rabbitpeng I also think that perhaps the gentleman may have been referring to when plants are under siege from pests or the like. That can be very taxing if you try to fertilize a plant. But generally, if a plant is suffering from a nutrient deficiency, you respond by either giving it that nutrient, or adjusting the nutrients that may be binding up that nutrient, which can also occur. I will say that the thumbnail for this video was shot 1 week after and the amount the plant has greened up from the time of shooting the video, and the elasticity/turgidity back into the leaves is a very good sign.
