Hoya Grow Tent Tour

[@bostan1976]

196, that is tall! beautiful collection!

[@stacey8073]

Miro I don’t know if you are a teacher or not but you have a very pleasant way of explaining things. I always look forward to your videos now that I’ve fallen down the Hoya hole!

[@BasiePlants]

I am not :) But I do have teaching experience 😅 I actually have Master’s degree in architecture :)

[@brooklin_bernek]

That’s so cool I had no idea!!

[@brooklin_bernek]

@@BasiePlants I want to watch your hoya videos everyday hahah!!! Love if you would do a video on how you manage spider mites with Hoyas - dang mites love Hoyas or atleast mine lol!

[@betsybegonia]

Miro's tent: adequate space between plants. My tent: overcrowding so intense it sometimes takes me a full minute to find whatever I'm looking for. 😂 Your tent skills are 10/10.

[@BasiePlants]

Full minute? 😂 I know there were times it took you close to 30 to find a hoya 💀

[@stargazer1238]

I'm glad I found this channel! You are wildly funny and very entertaining! Excellent to see a plant connoisseur with such a fabulous personality!

[@BasiePlants]

I am happy you found the channel then as well :) Glad you find it entertaining :D

[@lsmith7685]

Beautiful bunch of hoyas in you tent. Thanks for explaining how to make those wire hooks! Love watching your videos Miro!

[@lisanowakow3688]

Love your hangers❣️

[@BasiePlants]

I hope they can be useful to you then 🙂

[@sherylgrasmeyer1117]

Beautiful Hoya tent. Thanks for sharing. 💚

[@naleeyang5926]

I'm glad you got a H. rindu as well! it's so unique! I'm into veining

[@BasiePlants]

Yes! I love it a lot. I am very happy to have it :)

[@xyzszso]

Oh my god 😱 I would have never imagined that you are 1.96, now I have to rewatch every video because all the sizes (kkhmm) are in a whole new perspective 😅

[@BasiePlants]

💀😂

[@siobhanhogan4495]

My H. Subcalva was growing so beautifully! It was so lush and full and even had TWO (yes, TWO) peduncles... and then..... I found the mealy bugs...... AND THEN I found SCALE on a completely separate plant while I was treating all the plants living with the Subcalva.... when it rains, it pours, doesn't it? xD Lovely tour! Something to aspire to after the great pest assault on my home is over! :P

[@karenb136]

So happy to get home, check KZbin notifications and boom there’s one from my Miro! The tent looks so nice the way you put the Hoyas in there. I love those pots. The colors are nice. Beautiful, beautiful collection. I never dreamed you were that tall. No wonder the tent makes your back hurt. You’ll have to get a massage chair next. 😁 Loved the video and thanks for showing how to DIY pot hangers. Have a nice day. 💚🌿🌱🪴💚

[@BasiePlants]

Thank you 💚 I think the tent will look even nicer when they have grown a bit :) Hopefully it won't take them too long! Haha, I usually don't really go all the way in, I have a pump sprayer with a long nozzle so I can water from the entrance 😂

[@Sockermonstret]

I love this tour! 😍. Thank you! I was wondering, have you made the pole/trellis for the Hoya Imbricata? It would be very interesting to see a tutorial from you if that is the case 😊

[@nazhussain1560]

NICELY EXPLAINED MIRO,,, LOVE UR HOYAZ ...

[@anniesaddictions]

You are entertaining Miro!! Beautiful tent! 💘💘

[@james87106]

Miro, i havent been able to stop thinking about your Hoya sp. Rindu rafflesia! I just bought one for this year's birthday gift to myself. I hope it grows as beautifully as yours. That leaf on yours ticks all my boxes. I love hoya with parallel patterns in their venation.

[@efernette]

I just love watching your videos. If I wasn’t already subscribed to your channel I absolutely would! Thank you.

[@melrussell7830]

Thank you Miro very enjoyable 😆 I think your hair is looking thick and lovely and it suit you being long 😍 Let’s hope it not burnt by the light ! Hoya’s in Ariod’s out 🤣

[@BasiePlants]

Hahah 😂 Well, I survived the video and I don't usually go inside the tents, I water them from the entrance 😂 So hopefully my hair won't burn 😂

[@laurievanduyne1358]

Hello Moro, I love your videos, even my husband walks by and sits down saying, ohhhh I like this guy, he’s so funny! ❤️

[@BasiePlants]

Hahaha 😂 I am glad I can make both of you laugh!

[@laurievanduyne1358]

Dang auto correct, I did write Miro!

[@wendyacker245]

You are hilarious! Love your tent and collection

[@leahwatkins9911]

Love the tent setup..you always have amazing ideas

[@amouraearising2148]

you're delightfully funny and charming, miro! thanks for sharing...

[@BasiePlants]

Thank you for that sweet comment 💚

[@Wendy-zl8kv]

You are so smart! Thank you for the lovely video 💚

[@taterbofus1687]

Hi, new subscriber here from Alpharetta, Georgia. I love all your plants specially Hoyas.

[@TheCommenter1234]

great tent set up! also, great tip for hanging pots, i don't have you set up but I am sure I will use this hanging trick for something!!

[@1011beep]

Miro....I love the look......so sophisticated... : ) Would also like to hear about your Rhipsalis and Epephytes if you have any. Keep up the great work!

[@growingmyserotonin]

196cm ?! Oh my goodness no wonder you were worried about your head hitting the light!! hahaha I had to google cm - ft/inches to fully understand 🤣

[@SeriousClownLOL]

I love it

[@evansgarden4202]

Yqss queen I love all your videos you have been a inspiration for me . You have taught me so much like that hoysa are not succulents so water them more and many many more

[@BasiePlants]

Hahaha :D I am glad to hear that! Now, someone should water all my hoyas 😅

[@tracycruzen3966]

Miro, hello! I want to get a grow tent, but I’m overwhelmed with the accessories, especially the lights. Do you think the kits are worth it, or should I spec out each part? Also the shelves, where did you get them? BTW, Glad to see you’re so tall, I love a tall man, lol! Can you tell us what you do for a living, or is this your full-time job? Also interested in hearing about your country, we didn’t learn about it in school; at least I cannot remember. What is your native language? Can you say a phrase(s) in that language in one of your videos? Love your videos, thank you! I’ve learned so much about my new addiction, HOYAS.

[@stephanieaubie5607]

Hey! Just wondering where you got the planters from 🤗

[@isaachoneyman743]

Oh my goodnessss Miro such gorgeous plants! I’ve noticed you use a lot of pon. Could you explain your pon set up? I’ve been really struggling with soil and I’ve been thinking about switching to pon. Is it worth it to you? What are some challenges with pon you’ve found?

[@misterplantastic]

You'll always be my favourite Prima Ballerina Miro :P

[@BasiePlants]

I will be surprised if I don’t get a call from Paris Opera Ballet 🩰

[@misterplantastic]

@@BasiePlants your grace is just the best of its kind. This elegance, this finesse... I'm speechless 💃

[@BasiePlants]

@@misterplantastic Natalie Portman is jelaous.

[@MimaKovac]

Im just on the start of the video and now Im imagining Quasimodo secretly growing hoyas in bell tower 😅 For you is some big greenhouse and Im sure you will design one in the future 💪

[@BasiePlants]

Hahaha 😂 I bet he had a secret spot for his Hoyas in the bell tower.

[@TheQueensWish]

@@BasiePlants That’s why they call it Hoya Bella ... lol! 🛎🛎🛎🛎🛎

[@leslieoropeza6626]

Miro, where can I purchase the pots from? Please and thank you!

[@barbarasparkes1916]

What is that tent size and what size (diameter) of wire did you use to make the pot hangers?

[@lisanowakow3688]

I wish I could send you pictures of my Hoyas. I have a very stubborn plant with 4 foot vines because it refuses to wrap around it’s support.

[@BasiePlants]

I definitely have Hoyas like that. But I gave up on taming those long time ago, they just hang now and I kind of wrap them around hangers 😅

[@nazhussain1560]

LOVE UR GROW TENT 💕 MAY I KNOW WHAT KIND OF LIGHTS U USE FOR HOYAZ? I think I need to USE those lights for some of my HOYAZ... TY ...UR HOYAZ R BEAUTIFUL ❤️...I AM FROM BANGLADESH

[@puddentaine]

What are the pots that are hooked to the wall? Where do I get pots like that?

[@SandiesOrchids]

Could you have talk hoya Lineris I woud like a care guide about it?

[@mwoods4608]

So since you have the tent are you no longer going to use prop boxes?

[@walle5667]

You have a beautiful collection and you are very funny. Got a bit of a shock hearing your size, you certainly don't look like a giant on camera. I thought you just have small Hoya 😁 How does one keep up with so many plants? 🤔 I currently have 43 house plants (half of them Hoya) and I must admit I am pretty busy keeping up with them all. I water most of them once a week and that takes a couple hours. Then there are a few candidates that I water twice a week (my mini orchids) and a handfull of guys that I ignore so they don't drown. And still I usually end up forgetting someone 😬

[@BasiePlants]

Haha, everyone seems very surprised by my height 😅 Maybe it was too much realness too soon 😬 I have no idea how many plants I have but it is probably 300 that are part of “permanent” collection and I have about 20 propboxes going ;) It doesn’t take me long to water since I use a pump sprayer and that helps. Keeping them in tents and cabinets helps because sometimes when watering gets messy I don’t have to clean up right away. There are also some other tricks - making sure that there is something that retains moisture in your mix, self watering pots, moss as top layer for aroids etc. I would say it takes about 1-2 hours to water them all :) But taking them of cabinets and tents to shower them, and to clean those spaces can take days. But I do that only once a month :)

[@bohobabie5987]

Hello Miro! Thank you for videos! Can you tell me what the wire sheets are called that you have in the walls of the tent? Thanks in advance

[@BasiePlants]

They are rabbit fence wires :) The same I use for trellises. I get them in a hardware store. :)

[@tracycruzen3966]

Yes please!

[@katjapes]

I love your cover pots! Where do you buy them from?

[@BasiePlants]

They are from a local company here in Serbia called Drina. I don't think they ship internationally :/

[@katjapes]

@@BasiePlants oh like the cigarettes? :D It's a shame though I've been admiring them for some time now.

[@carmenr4378]

Grabbed my prosecco and im ready for the video ❤️ waiting for your videos so hard every week 😍 maybe we could do a swap someday? I have 178 hoyas at the time ☺️

[@BasiePlants]

I think that would be nice :) I hope I can figure out a way to send hoyas to EU, or... Serbia could join EU 😂

[@granthawkins9142]

What is the hoya with the really long leaf in the top row center hanging on the wall called?

[@BasiePlants]

I think you mean Hoya sp. Rindu Rafflesia :) I get to it, there should be a name on the screen 😊

[@granthawkins9142]

@@BasiePlants thanks! That's the one I've been spotting and couldn't pin the name down.

[@victoredwardo9485]

Is hoya siamica and hoya stoneana the same ?

[@victoredwardo9485]

I Googleit and the flowera looks like hoya stoneana but the leafa doesn't looks the same. Kinda similar. But mu hoya stoneana haves a fuzzy/pubecent idk, Underside.

[@batuhilal1363]

yeyyyyyyyy

[@paula010499]

💚💚💚💚💚

[@enirapiedt]

now I want my own hoya patella 🥴 my wallet is not ready for all the hoyas I wanna buy😭😭

[@BasiePlants]

I think she should be quite cheap to get ;)

[@Beaueim]

I think that hoya named meliflua in the video is not meliflua. It has much thicker leaves and vines.

[@BasiePlants]

I think so too especially if you look at my new tour you will see I have actual meliflua with large thick leaves and vines :) but it was given to me as such and I have no choice but to keep the name until it blooms :)

[@BasiePlants]

I suspect it is one of the pubicorollas though as the sap is clear

[@Beaueim]

@@BasiePlants it certainly looks more like pubicorolla. Maybe flowers will tell sometime.

[@alejandraponce6214]

I’m terrible at growing archiboldiana too 🥹 glad to know I’m not the only one.

[@BasiePlants]

You are definitely not 😅 The big flowered hoyas hate me.

[@alejandraponce6214]

@@BasiePlants hahaha I know! so hard but oh my the possibilities 🤩 once you figure these out pretty please make a video on it! 💕
