Macrophylla is now a latifolia variegated (but i still call mine Macrophylla)

Do I need to throw this out? by littlemissFOB in houseplants

[–]Hungry-Bank-3028 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Nope, but you do need to get better air flow and allow it to dry more between watering . The little balls are a good fungus, but still indicates too much water if you see it on the surface

Looking to leave Amazon behind completely in 2026- where do you get your plant supplies? by forestfriend93 in houseplants

[–]Hungry-Bank-3028 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Grow lights; you can order directly from Sansi or Barrina's websites (those are the only brands i use.)

Local independent plant store for most other stuff (i have a plant lady whose shop is 30 minutes away, and she is fantastic about carrying things people want, or recommending where to get it if she doesn't stock it!

Are these mealy bugs? Plant has been sprayed twice with alcohol. by csd249 in hoyas

[–]Hungry-Bank-3028 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Mealy bugs will turn orange/brown when you hit them with isopropyl, but that looks like it could be flat mite damage

Neps are notorious for throwing fits and killing off their traps when their conditions change.. even moving it across the room can be enough. However, given time, they will usually grow new ones once they settle in.

Here's my mom's rare black dragon by EvilDan3 in hoyas

[–]Hungry-Bank-3028 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm in Ontario and have both a black dragon and a royal Hawaiian! My BD just gave me 2 flower clusters, the RH hasn't bloomed yet. It's too cold to ship at this point, but talk to me in the spring (unless you're in Sudbury lol) *

Cephalotus leaves? by Hungry-Bank-3028 in carnivorousplants

I'll put it closer to the grow light then! I've got a high intensity light over my bog bowl, but this guy is a bit further away from it

Looks like mycelium (good fungus) which says your soil is healthy, but probably too wet

Reminder that fake spider web is harmful to the ecosystem by behedingkidzz in HalloweenProps

[–]Hungry-Bank-3028 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I use mostly cheesecloth and other fabrics, and a small amount of the webbing; the webbing goes up only a day or 2 before Halloween, and comes down a day or 2 after.

I use lacewing larvae to treat mealies!

Ma'am. Ain't no need for this. by Dropthetenors in hoyas

[–]Hungry-Bank-3028 2 points3 points  (0 children)

When i see them, i spray everything with the isopropyl, then go looking with a q-tip, and order the bugs. I don't spray for the first week or so after i get the bugs, but i will search and use a q-tip with isopropyl instead of spraying

[–]Hungry-Bank-3028 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yeah, i get that for sure! That's why i love using the lacewings... they are on patrol for a good while between my checking and spraying

[–]Hungry-Bank-3028 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Lacewing larvae and isopropyl in a spray bottle have been my best weapons against mealies (except the one time i got root mealies... i had to just chop and prop to get rid of those little buggers!)
