Post #5602642

Another thread here has prompted me to ponder something Lin said (I think it was Lin...) and that is that various methods of propagating - and growing hoyas for that matter -and depend a lot upon where and how we live. For instance, I water down my hoyas in the greenhouse when it is very hot and there is a breeze: I water down the leaves to cool the hoyas and I wait for a breeze so that there is air movement and my plants don't get muggy and full of fungi. So...we all deal with our environments in different ways.

I think a thread of this kind was written about years ago...I would like to 'modernize' it.

Could we post for the sake of information and illumination for all of us:

1. Where we live and the good aspects of our climate and the negatives of it. I know folks in AZ and NM have to deal with VERY DRY (no yelling...) conditions.

2. How we compensate for the 'problems' we think we have.

3. Which hoyas we find grow well for us and which are 'challenges'.

Perhaps, if we keep to the topic (ahem :>} ) this could be a Sticky...

I know that I am learning new stuff every day...
