Thank you!

Do you use a grow light? If so how? I’m new to hoyas but have both of these and want the Queen to produce pink leaves. I live just north of Seattle so will have mostly grey skis on a regular basis until next summer.

They are in a west window in Florida, and I have a halo light on the glass shelf directly above them shining through. the newer leaves are pink, but not typically for long. I can maintain the pink color, but it’s the most striking on new leaves.

I have the grow light on from sunrise until about 9 PM after it’s been dark for an hour or two. Just to give them that extra boost of light. I’d say the lights are on for about 14 to 15 hours a day.

I’m in Tacoma and have mine in an east facing window, but will have mine on for 8-12 hours a day, even if the sun is out!
