Hello all!

While I've battled pneumonia for the past 3weeks my hoya cutting have been kind of on there own. I'm only at about 75% so I have only been in to mist them. Some look good and some do not. I've had no Internet connection for most of the time so I could not get on here with questions and some of the cutting look as if they couldn't wait on me any longer. It makes me very sad to lose even 1" of a plant. While trying to recover I received a Hindu rope as a gift but totally infested with mealy bug. It proved to be an overwhelming task to try to get rid of all of them. Is it possible with such curly leaves? Or should I trash it? I don't want to hurt anyone's feelings BUT its a big risk for my other plants...... Any advice.? I really missed being on here. It seems like forever
