@PlantyPrincess I grow most of my hoyas in pons, I also have a scindapsis in pons, and I'm getting ready to grow my linearis in pons. I've been growing my hoya linearis cuttings in water for months after they rooted and they are doing extremely well. When I grow my linearis in soil, it grows to a certain length and then it starts to go downhill. I've noticed that I have been able to convert a lot of my plants easier when they developed their water roots after propagation.
I will be transplanting most of my Hoya to pon also! That’s so crazy I hear that all the time with different plants. Hopefully growing it in pon will keep it growing and moving forward after the point it would normally start to go downhill.
Wow they are all doing so good. Nice and healthy roots and like you said so much growth on them all. Good luck in their new homes I hope they like it. Update soon please?
Yes they really are! Thank you I can’t wait to see them thrive! Yes I will definitely do some updates. I always post updates on IG if you follow me there to for things I don’t post on RUclips you can find it there!
Happy Mother’s Day Ashley. Wow those roots, 👍🏻 nice. Great idea to boil the pon, will do that next time, it’s so important. Fingers crossed for your babies🤞. I’m so in love with pon and no going back lol. I still have a lot of plants in soil too, but my prized ones in pon. I bought pots with reservoirs on Amazon with a wicking system so u don’t need to worry about the pon drying out,the plants love it. They have them in small and large sizes, white plastic with clear reservoirs☺️. Can’t wait for a successful update.
Thank you! Happy Mother’s Day to you too! Do you have kids or just plant babies? Lol either way your still a mommy! I know I was expecting them to all be like the Kenejiana maybe a little more rooted but I didn’t expect the full lusciousness that they were so I was like YAASSS! Lol I’m loving it to. I had a few plants in pure lava rocks so a similar concept and I was loving that so pon is going to just be that much more better with the two extra ingredients! I won’t go back either lol slowly but surly I’ll be transplanting most of my plants to pon! And that’s awesome I might look into some of those wicking systems! Thanks!
🤗🤗love happy updates. Just plant babies ☺️, career, house and hubby keeps me busy enough at the moment 😂. The wicking pots are so convenient, especially now that hopefully more traveling or get aways and they stay hydrated at least a week or more🙌
Lol I hear you there! I have 2 girls but life aside from them is busy let alone the time they require lol my two blessings though! But yes those are great for traveling even if you wouldn’t want to use them on a regular basis a great idea for vacations for sure! It’s amazing some of the stuff people come up with!
Your 2 girls are so adorable, love seeing them on the channel. I know right, so convenient, a d with wicking it takes up just enough that the roots need. I’m buying two things I need on Friday to make your pon, I’ll use your links☺️
Thank you! ☺️ yes I’m definitely getting some wicking pots! If you don’t have zeolite yet I was searching on Amazon for a better price and found 5.7 lbs for like $13 opposed to the 6 lbs I bought on Etsy for like $34! I added that link in there to and order some the other day just to be sure it’s good before I continue recommending it lol
Yay! I remember you started with the leca from talking on one of my leca videos so switching some of your plants to this your going to fall in love with it and so will your plants! Thanks again for always watching!
Thank you! And I did! I spent the morning potting up these plant babies and then the rest of the day with my 2 girls! I hope you had a great Mother’s Day as well!
Yes I personally would and still would recommend to get any residue or loose dust lingering on the rocks. Also it’s a slow release fertilizer so rinsing it won’t rinse away all the fertilizer. Hope this helps! Thank you so much for watching!
So with pon, when using it by itself not mixed with soil, you can use it semi hydroponically and always keep it in a reservoir of water about a third of the way up the pot but below the root line if possible or you can water it like you would plants in soil. It depends on the plant and how much water it requires but generally I wait until the pon has dried a bit for plants that like to stay moist. So when half of the pot is dry I’ll give it another watering. For Hoyas or plants that are sensitive to over water like, in my experience, my variegated adansonii I let it dry completely and then still wait a few days before I give those plants another watering. How long you wait though also depends on several factors like how much light they get, how much humidity they get, what the temp is around them and stuff like that. Also plants that are a little more resilient I let dry out and wait a few days like with my Philodendron Brandy. Now I’ve been growing that one just in lava rocks, until a few days ago when I transplanted it into pon, which is a similar concept but I will continue to water it that way in pon too since it’s been growing so well. Remember this medium is like quadruple the amount more porous than soil so it does let a lot more air to the roots to help prevent them from becoming “too” wet but also because they are porous they hold in moisture to. I hope this helps you a bit with watering in any medium there is no time limit since so many factors come into play but hopefully this will give you a general idea of when and how to water plants in pon! Thank you for watching!
Your welcome! Hoped that helped! Someone else just told me you can use pots with the strings and a water reservoir so the string wicks the water up to keep the pon moist. If your interested in that do some research there!
Are you growing Hoyas or any other plants in Pon? How are they doing and have you had any troubles?
I will be on Wednesday :D That’s when my ingredients will be here. Can’t wait!!
Yay! Let me know how you like it when you get some plants potted up!

So far I’m so into Pon. Keep us updated on those Hoyas

Awesome video as always! I hope you had a wonderful Mothers day!
Thank you! And I did! I spent the morning potting up these plant babies and then the rest of the day with my 2 girls! I hope you had a great Mother’s Day as well!
@@NailzByA Yes my mothers day was wonderful!
So good to hear!

Awesome! I hope they love it as much as mine do! Thank you you as well!
Many thanks for the great tips! 👍 🙂
Your welcome! Glad you found this helpful! Thank you so much for watching!
If you purchase premade, it comes with fertilizer. So would you still rinse?
Yes I personally would and still would recommend to get any residue or loose dust lingering on the rocks. Also it’s a slow release fertilizer so rinsing it won’t rinse away all the fertilizer. Hope this helps! Thank you so much for watching!
Where do you get the shirts I love them
Thank you! Pink by Victoria’s Secrets

Please be careful you don’t clog your drain.
Thank you! Yes I realized that as I was making these little videos so I put the screen in before I rinsed the rocks out of the sink!
