Is a Green Light Hoya Right for You? (Pros & Cons of This Plant)
Share on FacebookShare on Twitter

Okay, so I’ve been messing around with this “green light” thing for my hoyas, and I gotta say, it’s been a bit of a journey. Let me tell you all about it, from the very beginning.

The Beginning: Why Even Bother?

I noticed my hoyas weren’t exactly thriving. They were alive, sure, but not really living their best lives. The leaves were kinda dull, and new growth was… well, let’s just say it wasn’t impressive. I did some digging, classic me and found some stuff. Someone said something about using green light. So I was like yeah…let me try it.

Is a Green Light Hoya Right for You? (Pros & Cons of This Plant)

Step 1: Getting the Goods

First things first, I needed a green light. Not just any green light, though. I read somewhere that it’s gotta be a specific kind, So I got one that seemed like it would do the trick.

Step 2: Setting Up the Experiment

I have a few hoyas, so I picked one that looked particularly sad. This was my test subject. I put the green light on a timer, about 8 a day, and that one is a little bit far from the light. I figured I’d start slow and see what happened.

Step 3: The Waiting Game (and Some Tweaks)

This is the hardest part, honestly. Waiting. I checked on my hoya every day, like a hawk. At first, not much happened. I started to doubt the whole thing. Then, I thought, maybe I got it, so I put the light a bit closer.

Step 4: Holy Smokes, It’s Working!

After a few weeks, I started to notice a difference. For real! The leaves on my test hoya looked… greener. Like, actually vibrant. And get this – new growth! Tiny little leaves popping up. I was stoked!

Step 5: Spreading the Green Love

Seeing the results on my test hoya, I decided to expand the operation. I set up the green light, and boom! More happy hoyas.

What I Learned (So Far)

  • Patience is key. This isn’t an overnight miracle. It takes time to see results.
  • Experiment! What works for one plant might not work for another. I had to tweak the light distance to find the sweet spot.
  • Don’t give up! If you’re not seeing results at first, don’t get discouraged. Keep adjusting and observing.

So, that’s my green light hoya story so far. It’s still a work in progress, but I’m pretty happy with the results I’ve seen. If you’re having trouble with your hoyas, it might be worth a shot. Just remember to be patient and don’t be afraid to experiment a little!
