How I Propagate My Hoyas | Starting Hoyas from Cuttings

[@ArthurGrey.]

What have we done to deserve a Knot Dude upload? So happy to see a new video!

[@SirPlantsaLot]

“The back side’s where it’s at” 🤣🤣🤣🤣 glad to have you back 💕

[@cadavercakes]

I'm sorry but your name has me in tears. 😭💀🖤I love it lol.

[@kaitlinlawless]

Nice to see ya! 😁 I propagate Hoya the exact same way, but with perlite! I like how you don’t have to stress about removing all the perlite when potting the cutting into soil. I’m grow all my plants in soil so I have to try your method just going straight in!

[@BasiePlants]

Red mites are the worst. Or that is what most people call them 😂 But we all mean the same - small, orange/ red, incredibly hard to spot, and they attack new growth. And the dark/ light test works too! Also you can use damp cotton pad and wipe the bottom and tops of the leaves (typically towards the new growth) and you will see them on the white cotton pad. They are tough to kill but what works for me and all the collectors from Sweden (where I got this tip from) is to use sulphur based fungicide (that also works as acaricide). The one I use is called Kumulus. Usually one treatment kills them, but I do it twice. It leaves white deposit on the leaves that you can always see on my hoyas 😂 but I don't care, it kills the bastards. There is a more insidious type of mite that burrows in the tissue of the new growth and that one is basically a death sentence. The Swedish collectors call those top shoot mite, but I am having a hard time pinpointing which exact mite it is 🤔

[@KnotDude]

I rarely ever see them on leaves. Just the stem and around new leaves on the petiole. I'm going to look into the fungicide because honestly they need to DIEEEEEEEEEEEE

[@BasiePlants]

@@KnotDude they will mostly go for the cute baby leaves 🥲 Burn them with fire 😂 PS I don't use drainage holes when I propagate hoyas pls don't disown me 😂

[@KnotDude]

@@BasiePlants you know what you're doing and can manage the no drainage :) I don't trust myself 😂

[@bevwootton4185]

When insects get crazy I put a plant into a larger plastic bag lightly spray garden insect spray into it, tie it up and leave for 2 days or more then repeat in 10 to 20 days. Works like a charm.

[@pinkyysk]

I am a new hoya own. Long time fan but I gave in. They all 3 are small cutting so this is long distance advice. But.... the soldering iron tip is magic I will be trying that out. I had been useing a lighter and a screwdriver. I have a soldering iron so will give it a go. I like to use odd pots for my outdoor plants and it's a huge pain with a lighter. Thank you so much

I also found that orchid bark that I purchased had alot of tiny mites😖

[@chomama1628]

Put your bark in the oven at 350 degrees for thirty minutes to kill anything that might be living in the bark. Let cool before using it for your plants. Hope this can help others.

[@aviabad]

Btw. Heart breaking w the mite issue. Thank you helping me be prepared. *Knock on wood*

[@herrenfam]

A friend introduced me to the commercial miticides Tetrasan and Minx2. They are made by the same company and you can buy small sizes of it on eBay. The tetrasan targets the eggs and the Minx2 targets adults. I had a bad case of false mites in my cabinet and had treated every plant multiple times, but the combo eradicated them on the first application. I hope that helps!

[@KnotDude]

Oh thank you! I may have to try it as they are back again, but all my plants are out in the open...we shall see. Appreciate the tip!

[@UrbanJungleMSP]

Thanks for sharing about the mites! I’ve had some unidentified pests that I couldn’t figure out that I suspect were mites, also. A few applications of a water, alcohol, and dish detergent mix seemed to deter them pretty well. Hope your Hoya are on the road to recovery!

[@KnotDude]

James! Those mites are the worst. I did add some castille soap to my mix but it made all my leca turn white so I stopped that 😬

[@UrbanJungleMSP]

Knot Dude The LECA turned white?? That’s wild! I forget about that soap, it’s basically good for just about anything!

[@sharonbrown5238]

I do Hoya the same way as you do. I totally love Hoya and wish I had nurseries in my area that carried Hoya but I don’t so I have to either find at big box or a person selling some in area. I’ve got 14 different ones so far and will keep hunting more. Hoyas are awesome plants.

[@PamsPrettyPlants]

Could it be russet mites? I got those before and it sounds similar

[@cadavercakes]

I have alot of Hoyas in moss as well as other plants but I've just gotten back into leca and just tried perlite. So I gave everything a try besides water propping because that method just isn't for me at all. But aside from plants that nail polish color is cute af! Thank you for the hair pins tip I'm definitely gonn grab some.

[@blackhoney7617]

Hi, great video I learned a lot. What size prop box from Target in the video was used.

[@myplantyhood]

I could be wrong but I think what you have is false spider mites. They appear reddish orange and they don’t make webs. They are crazy small so seeing them is nearly impossible. They sometimes leave trails on the leaves that look like a wrinkly indentation. They tend to go for the sweet spots right we’re leaves connect too. And they love new growth! I’ve used AzaMax with success. It saved my elliptica.

[@KnotDude]

I've been debating on getting Azamax but the alcohol mix has been working so far! I hate them

[@debracancelliere4081]

Hey, Adam! Great to hear from you! Thanks for the video. I just wanted to pass on some info about a method for spider mite eradication from miss orchid girl. She has videos (several- gotta find the right one) on the subject. Granted, it’s for spider mites on orchids but I wonder if it may work for your nondescript mites on hoyas or other plants. She actually has 2 methods that both work on the same principle: smother the bastards. One is a mineral/paraffin oil based mixture and one is plain old leaf shine in a can. I’ve had instant success with my orchids (flat leafed phals) and some success with hoyas and other plants. With the others, I have to be more diligent about application since there are more leaves that are not flat expanses like the Phal ( more nooks and crannies). I’ve been lazy after bringing my plants ( hoyas, Phils) in from outdoors and things are getting a little outta hand. These are the methods I will try first. Just a long winded FYI. Good luck on your pest mgmt. 😊

[@KnotDude]

Thank you Debra! I've had lots of people point me to her channel so I'll be checking out her methods!

[@nicoleseddon8562]

Thank you for the video!!! I had the same experience with those mites. It was on my triostar, same scenario with me using my flash flight on my phone to inspect my trio star to see why she had browning leaves, saw the orange mite, and then it’s like they vanished and couldn’t see them. I used end all from safers mixed with water. I will usually water with hydrogen peroxide and water as a preventative measure.

[@jessicamelendrez8]

Where you able to rid of them?

[@bevwootton4185]

One of my faves is using my Aerogarden, it worked so well that I purchased three in total.

[@sandyg8794]

Hi Adam! So good to see you! I love your videos and am hoping you can find time to do more. I didn't realize that you can get roots on the stems of hoyas, too. I don't think anyone has ever shown, or talked about that before. It's good to know. I hope you can get rid of those mites! Yuck! Can you just propagate hoya leaves with any success? I'm wondering because I just cut the last 3 vines off of my large hoya and had some nice leaves that I put in some damp sphagnum moss in a closed container. The rest of the plant just started dying, so I'm hoping to save the rest of it. I'll definitely subscribe to your new channel! It sounds like it will be fun. I'm glad you and Steve are able to do some fun traveling. I'm looking forward to your posts of your trips. Thank you so much for sharing!

[@KnotDude]

Hi Sandy! You can root Hoya leaves and they will stay in good condition however it will rarely grow another vine unless there was some stem material in the cutting. If not, it will just stay a leaf.

[@sandyg8794]

@@KnotDude Hi Adam! Thank you, again, for your reply! I would prefer them to vine, so may just throw them away because there is no stem. They were the leaves I removed from the vines. I wish I would have known about leaving some stem on them, but I do now! Thank you!

I had a similar thing and I could never find any information on it and thought it may have been a weird Aussie bug. I could tell something was weird when I saw orange spots on paper towel when I wiped down leaves. Thanks for sharing.

[@LynnLouisePS]

I also had mites that left knobby growth and had to throw away three favorite Hoya. I had this problem for probably at least a year before I understood what was causing it. It was awful! I've started over with more tiny plants. Thanks for the tips on spotting them.

[@KnotDude]

Sorry you had to toss out some of your Hoya too. We will overcome!

[@kalamitykatie]

I am a soil person. I consider trying leca, but haven't done it yet (something new to learn and I know what I'm doing with my substrates). But I have bought several hoya starts from local peeps that were rooted in leca. I leave them in leca while they acclimate to my home. When they are ready for up-potting, I just move it all into my chunky soil mix, leaving the leca the roots are attached to. I think people over-think the transition to soil from leca. Just don't disturb those baby roots. Make a basket with fingers, lift it all up en masse, and put it in your preferred substrate. Hasn't failed me yet.

[@jccn1728]

I have never tried soil, I usually use moss. But I’m about to chop up my Australis so I’ll try it this way. Thankd

[@nanabethscreations725]

I have posted numerous pics of those tiny orange pests. People keep telling me they are aphids! I use full strength rubbing alcohol in the sprayer! And use qtips to remove them. I have been using them the alcohol sprayer every two weeks as preventative and have been pest free for over a year!! I hope this helps. And as for propagation I use the prop box like yours with damp sphagnum moss and have roots in just a week or two every time. Then pot them up!!!

[@KnotDude]

I'm curious if you can see your mites with your eyes. The ones I've been dealing with are not visible with my eyes or a camera so maybe they are not the same. My macro lens is 10x magnifying and I can barely see them with that as well.

No i leave it be. It dries so fast it does no harm and my thought is if the pest can smell it maybe he won’t come there.

Wow beautiful silver dollar! Is there a link to where you purchased it? I also use a prop box but use a brick if coco coir that I hydrate and just stick the cuttings in. I usually put a small shot glass of water in to keep the humidity up. This has been fantastic and the cuttings can be transferred to leca, pon, soil or any other mixture easily.

Also, those goofy looking glasses may be helpful with hand pollination 🙃

[@peacelilyplants1993]

Hey Adam! Thank you for the vid. I have never propagated one of my hoyas and this was helpful! Just to be sure I'm understanding correctly, you are saying that I can cut anywhere along the stem to propagate (rather than finding a node, or in the case of some plants like string of hearts, having to cut off a couple leaves and stick the area the leaves were cut from in the soil)?

[@KnotDude]

Yes that is correct. You will need a node with leaves for a successful prop but the node does not need to be in the potting media! Just the stem. Hoya are amazing :)

I tried separating the healthy parts from the diseased parts and put them in leca. Unfortunately, one of them is still diseased. You have given me hope as I have all the supplies to spot (hopefully) and treat my once beautiful Hoya. Thanks for a great video. One question- did you just throw the diseased part away or did you tried to quarantine and prop what could be saved? I hate the idea of throwing away a salvageable plant.

[@KnotDude]

My issue with my hoyas was not a disease, it was a pest. If it is truly diseased, I am not sure it will get better.

Adam, have you tried a jeweler's loupe for pest inspection? Hold your infested plant over a clean sheet of white printer paper. Tap the foliage as vigorously as necessary to dislodge the mites. You'll see specks. Now, use the loupe to get a close view. Also, try using the camera on your smart phone and enlarging the resulting photos. Lastly, and most fun, buy a kid's microscope set! Get your sample bugs and place them on a slide and you'll be floored at the detail! You can also look at the tiny details of flower and leaf tissue as well as everyday small objects that might amuse you. You can get a junior microscope on Amazon for $85 - $100 if so inclined. I got it for my kids in 2005. They got bored. I still take it out and play with it!

[@zanyzana66]

Long time no see! Missing the scotch today, but enjoyed the video. Oops bourbon. And you came back to it. Phew… Have you tried insect bombing the room to see if it helps with the nasty mite issue? We bomb once a year and I’ve noticed that the fungus gnats disappeared afterwards. Dunno if it will help with mites, but it definitely results in cockroach carcasses for a few months afterwards.
