Comments (99)Puglvr, I'm starting to wish I'd never found this forum. There's a whole world of hoyas out there that I never knew existed until now, viewing the pictures posted on this web. They're beautiful, exciting, exotic, intoxicating and downright addictive. Even more so than orchids, and orchids are like peanuts. You can't have just one. My mom had a hoya pubicalyx (its 40 or 50 years old now: mom's 84) so I appreciated mine, but didn't have proper respect. We have to continuously cut everything back in south Fla or it takes over. The saying is to cut when the blade is sharp, and always keep the blade sharp. I only cut to give cuttings and am fertilizing the base more now. She has another dozen or 20 umbels in the works. Have you read about the beer formula? What are your opinions about that?...See MoreBeer Fertillizer questions

Hope this help....See MoreListeria and Liquid Compost Fertilizer.
Comments (10)Some people believe that the worst something smells the better it is, but that is not a truism. What a bad smelling substance does indicate is that it may have been made anaerobically (in the absence of air) which is what disease pathogens like. Equating bad smelling liquids to fish fertilizers is like comparing a rusty car to a new one, it does not compare. Composting these "weeds" and grass clippings, 9or even turning them in the soil, would be a better method of using them than strewing them in some water would. kimmq is kimmsr...See MoreJohana Ciske
