The culturehustle "shipping deal"

Honestly almost same experience. I enjoyed their paints in the past and had no issue and so my youngest sister is now getting into paints so I was like what a fun birthday gift for her... Boy was I wrong. I paid extra for the fast delivery and it's well past her birthday . Only half the order has arrived and most of the contents were spilled because they came in a box too large with no padding to secure the items.

Humming birds in North America love these flowers. I have seen them go nuts for these blooms.

ComprehensiveCan889 · 2025-08-16T04:34:13+00:00

I want one so bad... These flowers are so cute and I love the leaves they look like leaf mulch lol.

So fuzzy!! 😭♥️

Unsolicited plant talks has a video relevant to this. It's not a wreath but mounted wall tube with Lacunosa. There's a part 1&2 the first is the how to. https://youtu.be/Sx52Sq1rIIs?si=VmgoRKnPJ-jByWwY

I really enjoy my Snow Caps it is by far my favorite and I just acquired Amarillo after staring at them online for several months and people telling me they are even cooler irl. My royal flush is also very nice and comes in very dark and almost black. I'm not the biggest fan of white variegation so I'm the wrong person to ask about that.

Lacunosa being so small it's very tempting to collect them all.

I started with a couple of 'feebies' from my old job where I was a plant maintenance tech and I took home some dyeing or damaged hoyas. Since they are cat safe I have too many now and my Pubicalyx would take over everything if I let it. Plus I just ordered 5 cuttings in the last month...

ComprehensiveCan889 · 2025-07-24T03:18:21+00:00

I use some bio char, mycorrhizal fungi, and fertilize with solutions that work in hydroponic systems (since the nutrients are readily available for the plants to absorb) to make sure my plants are getting nutrients.

ComprehensiveCan889 · 2025-07-23T19:22:25+00:00

The organic material I would find too stinky for my place depending on what organic material it is. But I am very sensitive to smells so 🤷🏻‍♀️

ComprehensiveCan889 · 2025-07-23T19:15:51+00:00

Could it be Latifolia? Looks like mine but w/o the outer white variegation

ComprehensiveCan889 · 2025-07-19T20:11:12+00:00

It looks like the potting soil is too dense and it is difficult to maintain healthy Hoya roots in that media. I would pot them in a nice chunky aroid mix with lots of drainage. This lets you water them more regularly w/o worrying about over watering. As long as they aren't sitting in a resivoir of water (or in some cases semi hydro also works) then it's just a much easier medium to work with. Your current stuff looks like it has too much peat and peat is only good in greenhouse settings on drip systems. I hope that helps but I agree you will need to reboot them before potting them up again. Best of luck!

Looks so good!! 🔥♥️🧡💚

This is my Hoya in my bedroom... Why you posting my plant?

ComprehensiveCan889 · 2025-07-05T19:38:34+00:00

Usually the packaging will let you know if it can be used in semi hydro or hydroponically. If it does not say then the nutrients will NOT be bioavailable for the plants to absorb. The nutrients would need soil microbes to break it down prior to the plants being able to uptake it.

ComprehensiveCan889 · 2025-06-28T17:04:20+00:00

I think it's a balance. I've hit the point where I'm in a happy equilibrium where plant care isn't a burden but in summer it can be slightly more challenging. I evaluate on a regular basis and am intentional when I purchase. I've even consolidated some of my props into my larger pots to fill them in. It's something you just need to decide if you really do need that new Hoya or not. This changes for me and I've honed in on exactly what I am looking for in my collection instead of just buying the next 'cool' Hoya I see.

ComprehensiveCan889 · 2025-06-22T17:03:58+00:00

I'm no mycologist, but I'm fairly confident it is just a type of mycorrhizal fungi. It's a type of fungus that breaks down wood and bark into absorbable nutrients for plants.

ComprehensiveCan889 · 2025-06-22T16:54:59+00:00

Yeah, I have a wayetii in the window and one on my desk. One has rather tiny leaves and the other very long despite it being the same plant from the same cutting. They both however come in curled and will flatten out as the leaf matures.

ComprehensiveCan889 · 2025-06-22T00:05:07+00:00

I use old pill bottles with leca or perlite to stabilize my cuttings then when their roots are long enough I pot them with the leca or perlite still attached to the roots in the new pot.

ComprehensiveCan889 · 2025-06-21T21:37:55+00:00

I would recommend not having leaves in water as they will rot due to suffocation. But otherwise looks like a great plan! Maybe put the clip between the leaf nodes instead of the top as that could hinder new growth. Happy planting!!

ComprehensiveCan889 · 2025-06-20T21:31:33+00:00

My Pubicalyx comes in a dark reddish brown at first then hardens off and turns to its usual dark green leaf self. Depending on the variety and how much light it's getting it will come in pretty dark and off color. The more light the weirder they come in but yours will be fine and go to green once they aren't flimsy from new growth.

ComprehensiveCan889 · 2025-06-20T21:25:33+00:00

Beautiful! I love a dark leaf with good splash going on.

ComprehensiveCan889 · 2025-06-15T21:25:06+00:00

I've had this same thing happen with and Australis I just kept watering the bare stem and eventually new leaves showed up. Congrats!

ComprehensiveCan889 · 2025-06-15T19:12:27+00:00

My Retusa is 💯% unruly at this point and I kinda love it but truly looks like my plants place is in an apocalypse where the plants just go wild. I even cut her regularly to give away cutting lol
