I have had a hoya for 2 years and no new leaves have grown in that time and I don’t know why.

Do you give it tons and tons of light? Lots of fertilizer during growth seasons?

0개 좋아요It should be growing. Try using powdered sulfur. You may have broad or flat mites.
좋아요 1개It has indirect light all day long
0개 좋아요Can you use a light meter (This app has that feature and there are free apps out there for your phone) you want at least 1000 ft candles for 8 hours. Make sure to measure at the location the plant is and check multiple times a day. Mine didn't take off until I put her in the correct light levels.

0개 좋아요Do you have any apps you would recommend that are free?
0개 좋아요Not really, I was using the Planta app before I picked up a light meter off Amazon.

Our main hoya is in a SW facing window, since we moved it there about 7 years ago it doubles in size every year. We just cut off two 6’ branches about 3 weeks ago and dropped the cuttings in plain water in the same window and both cuttings have grown roots. We will plant them tomorrow and feed them with flowering plant spikes, one of them is ready to flower already! My big plant is super root-bound but it flowers year round.

The branches on the main hoya plant are about 23’ from end to end.
