    My go to with hoya is nice chunky soil and diffused light. Mine do really well in the west window, mostly diffused with a few hours of direct on clear days. I have a few in my south facing too, but I had to work them up to that much light, especially in the summer.

      Right now it's in a window that gets diffused morning light with some direct around noon and indirect for the rest of the day. Is this a good spot for it?

      Also what potting soils do you get? I've never really paid attention to the kind of potting soil that I buy so I would love to get some recommendations for good soil.

      They are also semi-succulents so they like getting dry and have quick draining soil. Also drainage holes at the bottom of the pot.

      That light should be good. The potting mix i use is one i make.... potting soil, perlite, orchid bark, pumice, charcoal. I'll add akadama if it needs to be chunkier, for a cactus or something. Avoid any of the pre-made succulent mixes that are filled with peat, it will stay to moist and rot them
