I grow all of my hoyas just over 120 in self watering pots and have been doing so for the last 2-3 years. I could not manage without them, especially when I go on vacations. My collection is about half and half pon and organic mix and both do well. I have a full time job and 2 kids so no time to water several times a week. They were a game changer for me and I have no idea how you ever managed without them with such a large collection, Miro. Thanks for your insight as always

I also make holes in the inside layers of my self watering pots with a soldering iron to ensure maximum airflow.

I wish I could come over and see all your Hoya! You have an amazing collection and you are so knowledgeable. I am new fairly to Hoya and want to try self watering pots. It’s interesting that it’s about oxygen not the water. Thank you for all the good information.
Thank you for promoting self watering pots , especially for indoor gardening , it makes logical sense . I never skim your videos , I do enjoy and learn a great deal from all of them . Thank you for continuing , after other hoya channels have stopped . I am sure it is a lot of work , both gardening , and having your channel . I too find the pots expensive for a collection of 50 or more . I do have a problem to find very large pot sizes , the regular orchid pots are so much deeper than self watering . P.S. very brave to do your video sans spectacles , another fun and endearing episode , Miro ❤
I currently have about 135 plants with the majority of them being Hoyas. When we travel, I hire someone to come over and water twice a week. It certainly adds to the cost of this hobby. Thus, I am looking into self-watering pots. My muliflora isn’t doing well in my homemade soil and needs to be watered more frequently. I learned so much from this video and especially about the thinner leafed Hoyas. Thank you so much for video! Well done and fun.
Great video I have all my Hoyas in self watering pots with an airy organic soil and it's been working great. I only buy the pots with the wicks and the the inner pots that are removable, I had a lot of trial and error. I found the pots with the water gauges were very inaccurate and subject to failure not to mention they were more expensive. Thank you for all your research.
Thank you for such excellent content on the subject of self watering pots. I’ve been using them for my aroids in organic medium for the past year and they’ve been a life saver. You filled in so many blanks on my own experience and knowledge. You get extra points for your wit and humor. Thank you for being you.
I only have about 50 hoyas but I am learning some like more water, some like less so I am jumping around with mixes still. Never used self watering pots, yet, but this was very helpful in case I do!! Thanks! And you look fine without the glasses! ❤
Heheh, I love how we say “only” *double digit number of hoya* and it is reasonable in our plant communities. I’ve mentioned how many I have to my mom and I’m sure she thinks I am not okay.😅
Excellent video! I completely agree with your points after growing in self-watering for years myself. But it's a learning curve. And it remains one. But it'd be a learning curve in normal pots too, so... :)
Yes, I have all my hoyas in selfwatering. I got my Carnosa in lecca and I didn´t flush it for 15 years, verry random watering and fertilisation, it survived. But now I am better in caring for her and added some other Hoyas as well 🙂
Miro this info was interesting. I have over 150 species of Hoyas and all are potted in my DIY chunky mix. I use coco chips, Orchid bark mix, charcoal, large pumice and a bit of potting soil. I have grown this way for 8-9 years my Hoya and no problem at all. I have a massive greenhouse so I take the hose in a couple times a week, finger test the mix and water if needed!! All together I have over 450 plants and different mixes would make me crazier!! Lol.
That mix is very similar to what I use: orchid bark, coco husk, pumire and some sphagnum moss for wicking. It is a great mix and Hoyas love it! :D Works very well in self-watering too (but not all my Hoyas are in self-watering as those pots take up a lot of space).
You are looking sooo “ fire pookie”!!! I wanted to make sure I took the time to let you know that whatever you’re doing on the inside is reflecting on the outside, and I’m super happy for you!! Now if you could send me some plant chore hyperfixation energy through the internet😜😂…
If you find a fallen empty bird’s nest it will be a good home for an aneroid Hoya, tied with cord and wrap wire clothe hanger to a tree branch on a safe spot that you can remove on and off when it needs watering or, storms, you can also spray water it
Um... I'm listening, and I was super pumped when I saw this video title. I grow a lot in no drainage or self- watering, and I'm trying to do it with all plants as my inconsistent watering in a large collection is taking it's toll. I'm not convinced though.
I just want to pop in and say thank you! I have learned so so much about Hoyas from you. I also blame you partially for my massive collection… lol! But mostly I just want to thank you! 🪴💚🪴💚
Such a good, informative video! I SO needed this, thank you!!💚 I've just started dabbling with self watering pots (and once again I need this on a tee shirt "Everything is a learning curve...and I'm SICK of it!" oh and I'd definitely get "plants, Basie plants" too!)👌🏽😂 Anywho...I was/am/was an over waterer, and after rotting plants I became an under waterer which means I actually became a root dry rotter (over. it.). I have the opposite issues here in south central Pennsylvania where my home is super dry in winter but in spring /summer (even with AC on) it's still pretty humid so the SWP have been very helpful this winter. I guess I'm in for another learning curve though, fun fun. I also have switched over most of my plants from peat moss to coco peat with perlite & bark (other amendments too depending on plant) and everything seems to like it much better. Thanks again for another great video!!✌🏽😊
Thanks so much for this video. It’s perfect timing for me since I just received an order. I may not like it but I really need to find a solution so I can go camping a few times this year. I really appreciate the information on mixes since that’s where I was most uncertain. Again, thank you and hope you have a great week 😊
The one I can afford and is available in my country :D which narrows down the selection a lot. Sadly, I can only get one kind here. All others I have are gifts from my EU friends. I can think of what my ideal SW pot would be like though :D
I have a bunch of Lechuza self watering pots but they're so huge and bulky, I ended up putting them in storage. The ones you are more minimal and round, which I prefer.
HIIIII, Miro I know it's been a hot minute. Dealt with depression and anxiety. During what I went thru guess what I'm a grandma not to human babies😂😂, but to my lovely Hoya Krohniana Eskimo black plant which I purchased in July and it bloomed omg it smells just like gardenia😁😁.
I have many plants in self-watering pots and many more I would like to move to self-watering pots. I like not having to ask myself whether or not I should water; I just top off the reservoir. I also like that I'm not pouring distilled water with fertilizer down the drain. It is in the reservoir and my plants are getting the full benefit of the products I've paid for. I know you customize your mixes based on the needs of the plant, but I would love to see the consistency of some of the mixes when you make them. For example - If you're making a mix of coco peat, perlite, and orchid bark, how chunky is it? I've moved pretty much all of my hoya to pon, and some of them have not liked it, so I'm thinking of trying something else.
How timely. Thanks for covering SW pots. I have just put two Hoya in them outside (undercover) because I was having to water them so much. I took special note of your advise for winter, thank you. At the 17.43 mark you are holding up an opaque SW pot where the feet touch the base. I would love the link to this pot if you remember where you purchased
I have been using self watering pots with pon for some of my hoyas but the ones with thick leaves develop more edemas. Therefore now I only keep thin-leaved hoyas in pon. I've found pH stability to be very poor in any kind of reservoir. I even add lime to my potting mixes to prevent acidification over time. How do you keep pH stable? Or is it less important for growing hoyas?
Good morning Miro. I think self-watering pot can do wonders for travellers. Last year my large hoyas in soil suffered because they were left unsupervised for about 15 days. I do not want to up-Pot Them so I am thinking of using a self watering setup this year. However, I am not sure how to go about it yet Question Is growing in PON or Lecca a sort of self watering system? Or to call it self watering a wick is required? Thank you
Hi Miro, love the video and I recently subscribed to the channel. I’ve been experimenting in using Pon with regular pots and not self watering pots. I have them in plastic grow pots, that sit within a decorative glazed pot. Do you have any recommendations on how to know when to water them- since moisture meters don’t work . I know some people will still leave about an inch of water in the pot, but wasn’t sure if you recommend that. I also saw your other video where you’re moving away from Pon, so maybe this is a controversial question lol. Hi from California !!! -Robbie
You mentioned about not wearing necklaces, as I get rashes wearing metal necklaces. But, mentioning it actually reminded me of coins, and are you aware that the Philippine coin for 5 centavos has a Hoya flower and vine on the reverse/back face (tails) but written as local language “Kapal kapal baging” (baging = vine) and kapal-kapal means “very thick” referring to the thick leaves. Wanted to send you link but I don’t it works on TH-cam comments.
Yeah, YT won't allow links - the comment gets deleted automatically! OMG I didn't know that! That is so cool! We only have some famous writers, poets, scientists on our coins. Like who cares, give me hoya xD (even though they have nothing to do with our country)
You need to soak it in CalMag before you use it (unless the packaging specifies it is buffered) There are several videos on the topic and why it is important, that explain much better & smarter than I ever could 😂
Starting my self watering pots with organic mix journey shortly. On what basis do you decide on which organic mix to use for which species of Hoya in self watering?
Where do you get those clear pots, that fit inside each other, for self watering? I am in Canada and would love to set up some of my hoya's this way. Really hope you see this and can answer me. That would be wonderful. Thank You.
Hello, can you please help me, I have just received a cutting of hoya lockii and the leaves are almost dried out because of the heat. Can I just put it in water to root or do I need rooting powder please?
It's best to root Hoya lockii in a potting mix and in a probox. I use a mix of 50% coco peat and 50% perlite, put the cutting in a pot with this mix, lightly water and place it in a propbox or a bag.
It depends upon where you are getting your coco husk. Here in the states, I can order coco husk specifically intended as a plant substrate that comes buffered already. I can’t speak to other places, but you can look for a product intended for plants.
I grow all of my hoyas just over 120 in self watering pots and have been doing so for the last 2-3 years. I could not manage without them, especially when I go on vacations.
