2 Month Update on my Root Mealy Problem- Is It Better of Worse?

Two months ago, I repotted 14 Hoyas after discovering a nasty root mealybug infestation—but did the treatment actually work? Join me as I pull every plant out of its pot, inspect the roots, celebrate the winners, and find out which Hoyas are still hiding unwelcome surprises. Two months ago, I repotted 14 Hoyas after finding a serious root mealybug infestation, and today it's time for the moment of truth! I'm checking every plant to see how they recovered, inspecting root systems, looking for new growth, showing progress, and revealing which Hoyas are thriving—and which ones are still battling root mealies. Along the way I share tips for identifying root mealybugs versus harmless perlite, discuss self-watering pots, sun stressing, variegation, and show updates on favorites like Hoya mathilde inner variegated, Cryptic Chrome, obscura silver, lacunosa 'Tricolor Bruno', clemensiorum splash, thomsonii splash, lyi (uncommon), lucantha, and spectatissima. If you're growing Hoyas or fighting root pests, this real-world update will show exactly what happened after two months.
