complete guide to hoya propagation 🌱 only 4 easy steps!

[@KaraLorg]

I love your videos. They are so helpful! I've been in this hobby for just under a year and fell in love with hoyas! Your videos help a lot with my plant learning journey.

[@anawithplants]

thank you! hoyas are a great genus to start off with, very forgiving for beginners. happy growing 🤗 💚

[@theminimalistninja]

Loooved this!! 😀 I recently propped my first one in water (to make a plant that I have look fuller but also neater) and it took a few weeks and it had strong enough roots to be potted up!

[@anawithplants]

that's great! water propping has a high success rate

[@OHear_Plants]

This is amazing!!! Loved it! Would you do a follow up video? After these root show step by step how you get them potted up, care tips for freshly potted up plants etc. that would be amazing!

[@robinprice6879]

Yes!

[@anawithplants]

of course! I'll add that one to the list, thank you!

[@PlantyTiff]

Thank you so much for the informative video love. I think someone else asked this but could you do a video explaining the next steps once your cutting has rooted and is ready to be potted up? Im pretty confident in getting my propagations to root but i always always deal with the growth point dying back once i pot up my Hoya. I immediately treat the plant as a normal plant and im not sure if thats the right or wrong way. It continues growing sooner or later but i want to know ways to avoid that if at all possible. Thank you so much 💚

[@anawithplants]

yes, I'll do a follow up! growth points dying back could be because of so many factors but I can add some suggestions or tips to help prevent that. thanks for the idea!

Thank you for the in-depth review on Hoya propagation. Well done 👍

[@kimsplants]

Great video, wish I’d seen this when I started of with Hoyas! 😁 Also, love the fall pillow 😍🍁

[@anawithplants]

thank you 😊

[@Jadelifestyleplantenthusiast]

What a great guide of Hoya propagation Ana. I appreciate your hard work. Thank you so for sharing complete guide to us. I use the same medium substrate on my Hoya as well. Your propagation substrate looks great i definitely try this one as well💖💕🥰

[@anawithplants]

thanks Jade! hope you’ve been having luck with tree fern on hoya 😊

[@Planty-Mandy]

Very good! I generally use perlite in containers with no drainage, and treat them like semi-hydro so I keep water in the bottom 1/3 or so. Then ideally, inside a prop box or a ziploc bag for humidity.

[@anawithplants]

I’ve heard of this method too! high humidity works great. good to hear you’ve found something that works 💚

[@dharmendrapatel1748]

Ana Thanks for the informative video. Very nice video.Learn new things in your video.good work

[@pinkdreamstuff]

This was a great learning experience for me! Growing Hoya cuttings vs plants can be cheaper for the more rare ones. I've been hesitant to try. Thanks.

[@bethadamik8014]

I am not sure how you would get the roots from those water vials without breaking them off! Can you please explain that? Thanks!💚💚💚💚

[@pinkdreamstuff]

@@bethadamik8014 I've received a few of those and I removed the bottom and then cut the top off.

[@anawithplants]

@@bethadamik8014 yeah unfortunately I haven’t found a way around that. I just cut the top, which is a shame it’s not reusable

[@robinprice6879]

I LOVED this info! I recently propped in stratum, perlite, pon and water. Stratum didn’t work at all that time but perlite and pon were the bomb! It was a super fun experiment. This is all such great info. Thanks

[@anawithplants]

I heard perlite added to pon makes it less dense, maybe I should try it sometime! I just hate how dusty perlite can lol

[@robinprice6879]

@@anawithplants me too so I started to use my colander to rinse it

[@lisaanglim9588]

@@robinprice6879don’t rinse it in your sink. Do it out side. All the dust you run down the drain aren’t dust, per se, but ground up pieces of the pon

[@LeafyConversations]

This is a great video! I got a cutting with a very minimal stem and honestly I don’t remember it having a stem (it’s been a few weeks since I got it). However, my leaf is still alive so my guess is it is growing roots. 🤔 I put it in my normal mix and water it every couple of days. Will see! I like your little vials.

[@anawithplants]

little stem cuttings are stressful! seems like your prop is doing fine. and thank you! 💚

[@kelsey9384]

Great video! 💚🌱

[@anawithplants]

thank you!!

[@lesvyalomary5581]

Lovely 😊 video Thanks.

[@jessicapetrin1655]

How do you get Hoya out of vial once it has roots without breaking the roots?

[@KTNYC718]

Yes I have the same question

[@anawithplants]

I wish I had a better solution but I just cut the top. would be a perfect system if it was reusable 😢

[@jessicapetrin1655]

@@anawithplants I looked them up. They appear to be cheap enough. I like the idea. ☺️

[@cbail1323]

The leaf falling right before you made the cut sent me😂💀 hoyas sometime do us dirty like that❤

[@Psionicbomb]

I’m trying to root Khao Yai and I got my cutting to root in water. Put it in soil with 0 watering to let it settle and it got root rot. The soil was chunky coco husk, coir and charcoal with 10% soil… Hoyas do what Hoyas wanna do. Lol

Totally not plant related but what mascara do you use? Your lashes are awesome! :)

[@anawithplants]

thanks girl! I actually use tubing mascaras. either the eyeko one or the caliray come hell or high water I think it’s called. oh, and I also use a lash serum so can’t take all the credit 😅

[@sagewillowLisa]

Not plant related lol but I loveeeeee your shrug! Where’d you get it? I need one immediately lol

[@anawithplants]

thank you!! oh gosh I got it a looong time ago. I think it was from free people

[@Mandi_Hui]

I use to be so scared to cut up my plants to propagate in case i mess it up on a plant i love especially. But i find some Hoya’s they can grow leggy empty vines or too much gaps in between. So i started to chop those up to keep my Hoya’s compact. I have tried the soil method with rooting hormones. Also pon in no drainage. But i find water props is the best and fastest with Hoya’s. I see roots starting within a week. Since Hoya’s and Euphoria and rubber plants they do bleed the white sap so those i definitely let them callous first. I use a narrow vase for water props.

[@anawithplants]

I second water propping, it is very quick!

[@Pretty.Foliage]

I love the bile however I have yet to figure out how to remove the rooted cutting from the vile without cutting the the cap/lid 😂🤦🏻‍♀️

[@anawithplants]

you and me both lol. I just cut the lid… it hurts every time but I love the convenience 😂

[@lisaanglim9588]

The propagation pins I found on Amazon were orange and dark orange. Id rather have the clear or even green.

[@Crssal]

At what point can I start propagating from a cutting that has lots of roots and lots of new growth now? I'd like to make a fuller plant but i feel so bad cutting them with all the hard work they've done.

[@anawithplants]

you can prop anytime leaves start growing! I'd wait until your plant is bigger but it's totally okay to cut your growing hoya. in fact, taking props/cutting them helps new growth shoot from the top and makes a bushier plant!

[@ninasuculentasymas]
