  1. Lots of interesting questions here, but if only my healthiest could look as good as your duds 🤣 With its multiple new shoots and inflows, the little one seems desperate to start anew in the right conditions, and you seem to have tried everything. Very frustrating. Didn't notice the transition at the time but the new equipment made your production a whole new ballgame. 🤩

  2. Wow, I suddenly feel horrible about how slowly my fuzzy petiole has been growing. You say 7 leaves in a year is slow . . . . I think I may have gotten, 3 or maybe 4. And she's a multi-vine plant!! I wish I could get 7 leaves a year out of her. Maybe I need to move her into more sunlight.

  3. HI DARLING, WHY DON’T YOU TRY IT IN A LONG WINDOW BOX PLANTER SEEING IT IS A CREEPER FOR THE SMALL PLANT. HAVE YOU TRIED THRIVE FERTILISER. I FOUND IT IS WONDERFUL. GOOD LUCK, LOVE FROM ANNETTE QUEENSLAND AUSTRALIA. IF YOU DECIDE TO GET RID OF THESE PLANTS LET ME KNOW.

  4. What would you do about pest infestations e.g. Thrips?
    The recommendations i get is basically to wash and try to maintain a low population.

    You have so many plants so I'm pretty sure you've encountered something similar.
    Have you've tried predatory insects or how to you manage to control pests with such a large quantity of plants?

    Great chanel btw Jan!

  5. I have a P. tenue as wel. I keep it a little bit on the dark side, so the inter node space is somewhat large. But it reached the top of its pole. And didn't attach either. It has grown 6 leaves in my care during spring and summer… so I think it don't like moss😂.
    I don't like to propagate it going into autumn. So I will keep it onto this poke, water propagate it early spring…

  6. 😹 As always, your brutally honest observations crack me up! You should give yourself the same grace as the plants though. Thoroughly engaging video, but you left us hanging what the little extra plant was and if it's still in the collection???? 😻

  7. My Hoya compacta refuses to grow for me at all. I’ve tried all kinds of conditions and it is healthy, just not growing. I call her Pixie and let her do her thing. Some plants seem to want to stay babies. Maybe one day she will surprise me and put on a growth spurt. But it’s been 3 years so far.

  8. Lol i liked the little blooper in the end! Ive recently purchased a massive amount of aroids, im going to sort of slowly empty out my grow tents and make room for the new ones from south america! im going to try to give them the best chance from day 1.

  9. Yes, that's a perfect example of how you cannot control nature. Even if you give a plant perfect conditions nothing is guaranteed, however, that's why we love to grow greenery!
    Goood vibes 🌱

  10. I had the same problems with my sharoniae cutting that I bought over a year and a half ago… for the longest time it would push out micro leaves and barely grow at all for no reason… it only started to improve, when It started establishing itself on my lazy plastic moss pole…. after I cut off the original node and root system, the plant started to grow and mature like a weed… I'd recommend you try and get the plant to produce more roots along the pole… maybe use seram wrap around the new nodes and hopefully once it estsblishes a new root system, it'll take off… my sharoniae was also pretty stagnant for a whole year…

  11. I own a tenue and it seems to grow and size up very fast. Honestly, it’s probably the fastest grower in my collection (to the point where I’m a bit over it haha)

    The difference between the climate in SEQ and Sydney perhaps?

    Thanks for sharing!
