Post #1175235

I'm at it again and this time I'm trying to collect things that trouble our Hoyas (and us for that matter) and ask our Hoya Maniacs for assistance to collect this data here. Might it be pests, diseases, reactions to unfavorable conditions,...etc. post it here, pictures are optional but would be good to have. Also give proposals on how to resolve/remedy the individual issues if you can.
It might get a bit chaotic within this thread and we may have to make a judgement call to divide the issues into seperate threads so that I later can index it on a "sticky threads".
I'm still not sure how I'll index it but I'm sure with your help we'll come up with the perfect index.

It would be good to use a basic form and below is my proposed format. Change it (add, rename,...) if you feel it necessary, I won't get upset :)

1. Name of disease:
2. Type of disease: (e.g. Viral, Bacterial, Insect, environmental,...)
3. Effected parts of Plant: (e.g. Leaves, Roots, Stems,...)
4. Type of damage: (e.g. Yellowing, dropping Leaves, rot, stunted growth,...)
5. Possible root cause: (e.g. too much light, not enough light, underwatering, overwatering, aliens,...)
6. Recommended cures/remedies: (e.g. increase humidity, use pesticide, squash them, ...)

You should also indicate on which species you saw the disease/pest and comment if you feel that certain species are more prone to it than others.
Write comments to your hearts content.

Thanks in advance for your help in this regard,

Milan

Oooops edited to add name of disease :)
