This is a painful video but I promise I’ll be back soon with happier, more helpful videos. I’m doing much better now, personally, which will hopefully transfer to the plants doing better, too. 😊

Here’s a quick video demonstration of how I set up a hoya in a pot of leca. I chat briefly about avoiding root rot by using a pot with a small saucer.

Prachtig ❤ Zitten je hoyas allemaal in hydrookorels?? Groetjes uit Nederland ❤
I hope you are doing well. I recently found your channel and was bummed you haven’t had content in a couple years. I hope you come back. Your transferring Hoya into Leca and watering them really was helpful. Thank you
Thank you so much for the kind comment!! I just logged into my account to post a short video. I’m still growing Hoyas and still love leca but im moving a lot of my plants into terrariums just because it’s a new obsession for me 😅
@@CorkysFlora well look forward to seeing new videos
Would love an update on this one
Sorry about the delay! The rooting method did just fine. The plant eventually died because I didn’t water anything for a hot minute. Most Hoyas were fine but linearis isn’t as resilient with neglect. 😅
@@CorkysFlora I'm sorry you lost your beautiful plant. I have set mine up with a wick and a large water reservoir so she always has water.
You just stuck the cutting straight in leca? Not in water first?
4.21.24 hi. i know i'm 4 years late and hope you see this. i just came across this video and want to know what the name of the plant is that you have listed Urban Hoya Jungle?
Façam trabalho bem feito e deixem tradução......
❤💚👍
Your plant in 1639 looks like it might have flat mites. Look into sulfur treatment for flat mites
Wow. I haven’t heard of anyone not keeping a reservoir filled. Is this how you do it still in 2023?
When you water what kind of fertilizer do you use? Do you use tap water? I'm just starting my journey and I do not feel very confident.
I just transferred my Hoya Compacta to LECA last night. They are known to be a very slow grower and I'm not patient! 😅 I hope to see more out of it now!
I just heard wild fern talk about the algae problems she was having. So by she slipped a sick over the outer clear pot and no more algae! You can sluo the sick off to see how the roits look!
Thank you for showing your Hoyas! Your work was appreciated
Isn’t “sp” called “species”?
NICE beautifully shaped plants they become. and the small yellow flowers smell like freshly cut celery.
Mine dont like the pon too I think it's too wet All the time. But in soil it get crusty dry out too at the beginning on the stem. Really hard this Hoya 😅
I love re watching this video. Do you think you might do an updated one soon? 😊👍
Thank you for options you shared. Most of Hoyas were in coco peat. There was a weather change since past few weeks causing the environment to be more humid. I checked to repot the Hoyas.. most of them were having root rots. Since I can’t move all of them to Leca or Pon immediately and I had a big bag of perlite. I changed all of the potting medium to perlite and coco peat 60:40 ratio. Your channel and video came to my help at much needed time. ❤
Where is your location?
Love your hoyas. Can you tell me the name of the first Hoya in the video with the pink flowers.
Thanks! Great help for me!
Thank you for this video!! This is my first time using LECA! So, when you use those deep saucers from Lowe's, which they still have tons of, very inexpensive, you only bottom water and the LECA just absorbs it??
It’s super helpful to those that are new to Hoya if you know (or have labels ) on them. It’s also a bummer that you skipped over so many Hoya. You have such a beautiful collection and should have spent more time on each plant , showcasing them all.
I can't read the labels that fast! Most were a blur! I tried to pause but kept backing up too far! I spent so much time to find the name that I gave up on this girl. Bye bye!
Literally I'm saying the same thing right now I've backed up 10-15 to try & catch the places she purchased them from!! Having a hard time finding the last few places she named off cuz I'm not sure if I even have to correct names!! 😢😢
Do you recommend rooting it in water first and then moving it to leca after the roots are formed? Or can I simply stick the cutting into the leca and let it start rooting there?
“I’m a lazy person here telling you what you can get away with” 😂😂😂 Yasssss!!!
All of your plants are beautiful
Where is your location if you don't mind❤?
Wearing gloves with sphagnum moss is a good suggestion! First time I used it I worked with my bare hands, and the itching almost drove me mad. It also itched for awhile after washing my hands.
+👍🇺🇦
Your shelves look amazing! I beg to disagree...🙂
Very nise ...healthy plant ..Is this plants Hoya s need ferlizer to grow .????from india .kolkatta.
Hola para futuros videos puedes poner la traducción al español .me interesa aprender sobre este uso de la leca en hoyas 😉Gracias .Saludos de Chile🇨🇱 🇨🇱 🇨🇱
Hi thanks for the video, did you find a all in one fertilizer with all the micro nutrients the plants need? I'm just getting into this and worried my plants might suffer from nutrient deficiency. Any suggestions greatly appreciated thank you.
Gracias por el video y por ponerle traduccion al español¿le colocas algun enrraizante a la leca?🙋Gracias gracias.saludos de Chile🤗
I love all your Hoya's! Can you tell me what you use for fertilizer?
Hi Corky! I have been following u since a little before your Hoya tour! Will you be doing another? You had the best selection of cuttings I've seen and I'm anxious to see how they're doing. Hoyas since 2020 are so expensive or the shipping costs makes it so. Look forward to another Hoya tour! Dee, Long Island, NY
Thank you so much for your comment 🥰 I will try to come back soon with an update.
How dry does it want to go?..as much as other hoyas? I just ordered one of these..TIA
Thank you And comment number 9 Also do you work there?
Big Huge thank you for making my life w LECA less stringent. . . . its all about the capilary action to get the water and nutrients to the plant is what i take away . . . . I will now repot my one and only Hoya thats been in soil next to doing nothing and put into my own DIY situation - putting less inportance one the Perfect pot, vessel, puting more engery into tthe indivual plant and its acclamation. Now the possibilities are endless. Now i have a stronger grasp of LECA and the love affairs starts all over once again. thank you >>great video great detail . ..just great.
how often do you water the leca cuttings?
I've been trying to root hoya krimson queen cuttings in water for 3 weeks now and so far no roots ... should I keep going with water? Or would it be safe to switch to leca and hope that helps? One of my cuttings leaves is starting to get soft n wrinkled so before it dies I'm hoping to get some roots popping out. 🙏🏼
Sorry but you didn’t show what was in the water . What kind of a solution.
I have a lot of mason jars from canned foods and some net pots. I think I'm going to paint the glass to discourage algea though. I've done that for my water propagation. Thanks for all your tips!!
The Matilde is soo cute 😍 😭
Never mind thanks to everyone here I know what Lena is 😂
Love love Hoyas question what is that brown chunky little stuff inside your plants
Beautiful & Healthy Hoyas. Thanks for sharing !
Learn alot fr you indeed
Hi Corky, your hoya did okay after 2 months, just curious since you didn’t come back and showed with this video Great video though, thank you for all the informations , I’m just starting in this Hoyas and lecas. I have a question , just got my Hoya Australis Lisa 2 days ago by mail. It’s a seedling. Have you tried transferring a seedling hoya Australis lisa. I’m just curious because i was planning to transfer my seedling hoya to LECA
It ended up doing well but I forgot to update before I gave it away. I haven't every received a seedling in the mail. Is it quite delicate? Lisa has always done well for me in leca, but when I am nervous about repotting, I like to wait until there is enough growth to take a cutting to root in leca.
Just found your videos/channel! My ears perked up when you said that you were from northern indiana! I’m also from northern indiana, now living away. What city/area are you in? I have a few cuttings that I’m going to try this method with, great video!
I'm near South Bend :) How about you?
@@CorkysFlora oh WOW! I grew up in Elkhart! We’re Michiana girls, I love it! I currently live in Charleston, SC, but will always be a Midwest girl at heart!❤️
Nice video, very informative . Thank you
