Where Are They Now? 2 Years of Growth on these Hoyas!

[@peacelilyplants1993]

Holy cow, you have the most beautiful obavatas I've ever seen 😭😭

[@AussieEnglishPodcast]

oh man, whisky and plants. I think I've found my new favourite channel hehe

[@sproutswithjoy]

Oh my goodness, I feel like you've been posting a lot of videos lately!! Yay!!! What a treat--I'm so happy that you seem to be feeling inspired :). I love your videos, and I especially love hearing about growth updates. You're awesome!

[@KnotDude]

Thank you for watching them! Im on a roll! haha

[@shelly7757]

speechless apart from squealing with joy at the awesomeness of your humongous hoyas

[@annettamackey1538]

I Love, Love, Love your hoyas!

[@marleenneil7542]

Amazing - love the last plant shown.👍💜

[@embracingranola]

I was just contemplating some hoya purchases and it's nice to be reminded that smaller plants do eventually get big! Obovata is definitely on the list now....

[@darlenejordan5777]

Your Hoya Obagata is gorgeous!

[@tylerfrakesrealtor]

I have the biggest crush on you … just sayin 😜 gorg Hoyas, too 👍

[@GEOMETRICINK]

I desperately need to take pictures of my plants when I buy them. I’ve been meaning to do this for years now and never do. I’d love to see the progression in photos. I have plants that I bought as seedlings that are now on 6 foot moss polls. I so wish I could see the progression over the years. Such an interesting and fun video!

[@KnotDude]

Yes! Document everything!!

[@katiewilliams9273]

😂😂thanks for the laugh , when your so excited over the bud . I almost peed myself, I had to watch it again and again

[@MyCleanLeaves]

And, that Obavata variegata w/splash would be bigger if a good chunk of it wasn’t sitting in my kitchen ☺️ I feel honored to have a knot dude favorite.

[@sandyg8794]

Hi Adam! I love that you're doing more videos and hope they continue on a regular basis. You always make my day! It's amazing how well all of your Hoyas are doing after just 2 years. I have to agree with you that the Hoya Obovata (variegata w/ splash) is so beautiful! It's my favorite, too! It's exciting that it is flowering. You definitely have the right to be braggadocios about this Hoya! LOL! You definitely have a green thumb. I wish my Hoyas grew that fast, especially where you said you've taken cuttings and they've gotten so big, too. It was fun seeing how different you look, too! I really like the update videos because it helps to see what they will/should look like. How do you determine which Hoyas to grow in LECA vs. soil? And, do you feed the Hoyas in soil the same mix you use for the semi hydro? Thank you so much for sharing!

[@katiezenovic3857]

I get so excited every time I see a new video from you! Thanks for posting again!

[@groenmetjulia]

Just start listening your potted together podcasts. In episode 3 you talked about hoya, so I looked you up. I never expected this kind of Hoya love. Amazing! Thank you for being so excited about Hoya. I just watch three of your Hoya videos! Love it! Can’t wait to see my Hoya in two years.

[@carolclover434]

Hello Adam, What a great collection! You certainly have earned bragging rights. Thank you for sharing.

[@UrbanJungleMSP]

That splash is INSANE! Amazing to see these "Where are they now?" type of videos, would love to see more!

[@KnotDude]

They are my favorite videos too! i cant get over the splashy babes!

[@malicia766]

Oh my soul, your plants are beautiful! I'm off to make more cuttings 🤣

[@AlexandreGil3166]

me eyeing the hoya wibergiae one leaf cutting I bought EXCLUSIVELY because of the pink splashes for 30 euros... Anyway hopefully it'll grow XD thanks for the info about the splashes turning color with light ! :)

[@morganmyatt1457]

I remember when you first unboxed these Hoyas. I was so in love with that obovata splash that i had my heart set on buying one. I couldn’t bring myself to spend $85. Flash forward two years and I ended up buying one from you for a bit more than that. And honestly it means a lot more to me that it came from the plant that I originally fell in love with! And from one of my favorite Internet people! Forever grateful to you!

[@KnotDude]

I'm so happy it's in your caring hands!!

[@rexhong632]

@@KnotDude I want to buy a cutting variegated Obovata splash from you, please let me know how I can buy it. Thank you!

[@QuietTurbulence]

Those are ovobata goals! I’m living vicariously through you as even the green version are really hard and pricey to get in the UK. Loved seeing the progress your 2 leaf cuttings made in 2 years 🙂

[@FRANCESCA01234]

Wow 💕

[@darlenejordan5777]

Your plants love you!! Absolutely beautiful

[@eljardindelamorenita5863]

Yes💥

[@amurphy8278]

Those are some beautiful, healthy plants!! Such amazing progress!

[@judymckerrow6720]

Gorgeous Hoya Adam. I think Hoya love you, they do so well for you. 🌺💚🙃

[@kaitlinlawless]

Omg the level of growth 😲 such an amazing obavata!

[@ddyukon6369]

OMG! Your v/s obovata is gorgeous 😍. I already have the green one on my wish list but this is now been added.

[@plantwithroos]

Oooh yay!!!! Hoyas and Adam!!

[@earthpotco1037]

Your hoyas are 🤯💕🥰 yum! What conditions do you keep them in? ( humidity, temperature and what grow lights do you have).

[@alishamccormack6972]

You’ve totally got bragging rights! Those are some sexy Hoya you got there. I can’t wait for mine to get that big. Do you grow all of them in LECA?

[@KnotDude]

Yes i did! These plants were the whole reason I started using LECA and have loved it since!

[@cindybell9195]

Gorgeous!

[@cookieeng-retriever102]

Wow the best obavatas ever !!!

[@VivieNg]

Your Hoya grow so fast 🥰 … so so amazing obovata variegata splash, I am looking for this Hoya for long time .. wish to get one. If you can make some exchange, please let me know 🥰 thank you

[@shirleywilhelm1495]

I hope in two years my hoyas look as nice as yours. TFS

[@MichelleMonstera]

Thank you for the "pink splash" warning! I am new to hoyas and would've totally paid more thinking it was a rare thing to happen on a Hoya!

[@jungleflowerscanada5384]

You should be braggadocious, they are some amazing Hoyas 💚👏👏👏

[@keylove9641]

I was able to purchase a few from you during a purge including the obovata var....😍 I love all of them 💜

[@KnotDude]

Aww so glad you have some!!

[@vickktoriaa]

This video is the first time I’ve seen an inner variegated Hoya Obovata with normal round leaves😍 every other one I’ve seen the leaves are always misshapen. I thought it just didn’t grow how the regular Obovata did because of the inner variegation. Now I really want one and have the goal of growing perfect like yours💚

[@Beria_Schwutz]

soooo true 😮 But why? how do these leaves grow so beautiful and round and not curling...who knows the secret 🤔🙈

[@xgreenus]

✨🌿🌿🌿✨

[@newmanmansell760]

Wowzers😱🙌💖I understand that Hoya obovata variegata splash would give me buyers anxiety too, but take a look at it now🥰And you did cuttings and they have grown into full plants😲💢I love that! I enjoyed watching🤲🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

[@sherri54]

8.10.24 i just put an order in for an Hoya obovata (variegata w/ splash). you have given me goals to look forward to. how do you take care of yours?

[@pchabanowich]

We learn as we grow - your results here are stupendous. Being cut from a similar cloth as you, swooning over Hoyas is a given. Two years ago, I bought a Carnosa Princess - what is there not to love? - and was so thrilled, though uneducated and winging it, that I found a beautiful Chinese ceramic pot and made the connection, not realizing that the pot was far too large, and it has spent 2 years growing roots. However, in Jan '23, it began to make promises, and in the last week, two vines with two leaves each have begun to enchant the garden. They are incredibly various and painterly, entering the world with pink or red centres in the leaves, maturing into dark green-margined paintings, framed so cleverly. Braggadocious this time, with apologies. Sheer luck, it must be confessed. 💐

[@CazSantiago]

Thank you for this video! I have fallen for Hoyas and am slowly transitioning my collection to mostly Hoya . Can you please make a video on how to care for them (light, temperature, humidity, soil mix, fertilizer, etc) so they can grow as well and beautifully as yours. Gracias!

[@sprkinles32]

I'm just getting to know hoyas, actually plants in general and my first hoya was the Obovata. I'm basically a new plant parent and my Obovata is growing slowly and it just look dull. Yours is motivation to do better. Any advice would be more than welcome.

[@jelenalescova9479]

You're Obovata is so beautiful, i bought so many of obovata var /splash and now I just give up. All looked terrible and grow terrible for me.

[@jessicadaniels536]

WOW you totally have Bragging rights!! SO insane that a 2 leaf cutting can turn into THAT! SO Gorgeous.

[@cherylfaulkner7991]

I would like to know what you are doing to make you hoyas grow so fast. I just love the looks of that obvada varigata!!!

[@suekuly4723]

Wow…..they are doing so well. Also, love the T-shirt.

[@shadesofidaho]

I LOVE hoyas and philodendrons. They have been my mot rewarding plants.

[@mandychen9846]

Super interested in your splashy Hoya obovata . If you ever wanted to give it a hire cut, please let me know. Thx!!

[@judymckerrow6720]

I think my favorite is Hoya. I’m an under waterer so Hoya are perfect for me.🌺💚🙃

[@sydneyrocks1999]

Okay so what I’ve learned is that I need a obovata variegata with splash.. anyone know where I can get one? Lol

[@leescozzare2174]

I thought I had an obovata Var. Splash until I saw yours! I'm pretty sure what I have is just a variegata.

[@darlenejordan5777]

What plant food do you use?

[@KnotDude]

I use a hydroponics nutrient solution from general hydroponics

[@corry000]

Geeez what are you feeding your obovotas? The growth pace on them is unreal!

[@lleo9703]

WOW! Love this sort of video showing the progress of your original Hoya purchases. That was the best $80 spent on a plant! Congratulations!

[@lidiahinojosa638]

omg i want that last hoya ablovata 🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰

[@rootedinco]

💚🌱

[@jianxjana123_7]

My green obovata also produces a lot of Peduncles but just doesn’t develop to flowers

[@cindybell9195]

These are my fave videos. I like seeing how much I can look forward to.

[@jesusgranados3900]

I'm convinced that heat and light has a direct effect on hoya variegation. How ever I am not an expert

[@gardeningnewbee6375]

Love this video! Omg your Obovata’s 🤤🤩

[@bls4076]

Thanks for this vid! I am now obsessed with the obovata variegata!

[@planticando]

Wow such a beautiful obovata revers/splash 🥰 Se

[@LMEL756]

I looooove your obovata. SO MUCH! I bought a rooted cutting 1 year ago and it hasn’t grown at all and looks very sad. I water it twice a month and it hangs in a south facing window with indirect light. It is in a chunky soil in a clay pot. Any tips to make him grow??

[@KnotDude]

Hmmm try to put it in a humidity some or box until it starts growing. Jumpstart it a bit.

[@LMEL756]

@@KnotDude I will throw a cloche over it! Thank you!

[@nonenone3458]

Lolol the cutting not cutting lolol ≤3 u Adam! (Jessi)

[@lyndamooney1592]

Where did you get your obovata varagated? I would love one😊

[@borgimplantdan]

Great Idea! I'll label the dates on my hoya and do the 2 year thing too

[@ehlesdee]

I’m jealous of your nail beds :(

[@maryannmahlmeister524]

Adam you have the most beautiful plants. I’m in Michigan and struggle with keeping my humidity up and giving my plants enough bright light. It’s even dryer in Arizona but you manage to grow the most beautiful Hoya’s. Must be all that great bright Arizona light! Love your videos. ❤️

[@KnotDude]

I gave up on trying to keep up humidity. Thankfully Hoya can thrive without it!!

[@ericabarbknecht3854]

First time watcher to your channel, and love this type of format! What light conditions are your variegated obovatas getting? I have one under growlights, and it's put out 3 leaves since I got it, but it's slowly getting less and less variegated.

[@KnotDude]

The more like green Variegation plants are near an east window. The more cream colored variegated ones are under grow lights only.

[@TheC3.]

Your nail polish looks like the tiger eye stone

[@Ambermae001]

Goodness! I love your collection!

[@bethb7973]

Absolutely gorgeous! I have a Hoya carnosa that is easily 50 years old (it belonged to my grandma (RIP). Any suggestions on how I can get it to bloom or do you think it’s blooming days are over?

[@KnotDude]

I dont think its blooming days are over at all! I have a really old carnosa as well that blooms. Maybe give it a little stress (let it go a bit too dry) i feel like that is what encourages blooms for me, but dont kill it! Also make sure it gets some really great light!

[@zanyzana66]

Wow, you’re the Hoya whisperer!

[@StrangeDisposition]

Your Hoyas are stunning! You, Kaylee and Nicole inspired me to get Hoyas from Margarita twice. It’s been a year now for the mathilda splash and gray ghost and they are doing so well. I was also nervous about the prices and how long they took to get to me but no regrets now 💙!

[@KnotDude]

So happy yours are doing well for you!!

[@DaPlantBbz]

Wow! Wow! Wow!! Your variegated Hoya obovata splash!! 🔥🤤👏🏼💚

[@dulceangel4437]

Do you sell cuttings for your Hoya obovata (variegated/solash)? I fell in love with yours!!!

[@KnotDude]

No not currently selling any.

Where were these all purchased?!

Is that bourbon sweet? That last splashy $80 plant was money well spent. JUST WOW!!

The bourbon is a bit sweet!

[@alouella]

Phuwaensis is gorgeous!

[@marygorchidsmore2058]

Great update on your hoyas! I always wonder how big they can become after even two years! and wonder how some people( some youtubers just buy hoyas every few weeks) buying so many two leaves hoys, and they don't even think about how big they can get ! I really like your big hoyas ! Thanks for sharing and happy growing. Which one of your hoyas has the best fragrance?

[@nicolepro927]

If you haven’t already, could you post what conditions you have your Hoyas in?

[@KnotDude]

Hi Nicole! Most are in an east window and I do use grow lights on my shelves so they get that light daily.

[@beautifulstems1631]

Omg you’re Hoya obovata variegated is so gorgeous 😱 are you selling any cuttings?!

[@KnotDude]

None for sale :)

[@Janette0220]

not plant related, but would be good if you could let us know what nail polish you're wearing 😍

[@KnotDude]

It's a base color from Essie called high voltage vinyl. Got it at Target. I used a top coat from Holo taco that has color shifting glitter!

[@marymorris9421]

I love your Hoyas.

[@growingwithlauren9348]

THIS IS AMAZING OMG

[@nhuddy]

Do you give your obovata v.spalsh alot of light. I love the dark foliage.

[@KnotDude]

The darker one gets less light and the the more white variegation is under brighter grow lights.

[@sherryporsch9349]

Two years later an I’m still lusting over your V Obavota. 😍😍😍 I did buy one an keeps putting out green leaves an I keep chopping it off. 😅 You can brag..... 😀💚
