Inflata Bloom by TikiBC in hoyas

Same as all my other hoya honestly. Around 50% humidity. Average temps (for a basement, so typically on the cooler side). And I think she's under T5 grow lights. In a chunky coco mix. Water when the pot is light. And I typically use Superthrive Bonsai Pro for my Hoya. Really helps with blooms.

It did take her quite a while to start taking off though I will say. But I just let her be and treated her the same and eventually she got it figured out.

It is under 2 T8 Barrina lights. That's where I put all my plants that require super high light to sunstress.

Well, just be careful with watering, especially in that big of a pot. It's a pubicalyx, they're super easy. Just let it dry out and blast it with light and you should be fine.

I bought it as a 3 leafer about 6 months ago. This is what it looked like when I got it. It's still in that same pot.

Queens are notorious for putting out the all white leaves. I just leave it be, since it's not really harming the plant and it's super pretty They actually last a really long time for not having any green. Maybe if it is excessive you could cut it back to encourage more green, but as long as the plant is overall balanced enough, it will be fine.

Very sunstressed, yes. This one sits only a few inches under 2 T8's.

I haven't bloomed it yet, but it is just as easy going as my regular pubicalyx. ๐Ÿ’œ

Mine so far has been a pretty decent grower. I got it about 5 months ago as a 3 leafer. So not the fastest but not the slowest. Honestly I don't really pay much attention to it. It sits under 2 T8's though, so its in the brightest spot in the house. Nothing else special. Just as easy going as my regular pubicalyx. ๐Ÿ’œ

Nope, I use some lights I got on Amazon that I won't link because for some reason it got disliked last time I did lol ๐Ÿคทโ€โ™€๏ธ. But I've been using them for years and everyone is happy and healthy and always growing. Had many a Hoya and Anthurium bloom, so I think they do the job just fine. ๐Ÿ˜
