I recently got this hoya and it is very unhappy. It’s sunburnt and doesn’t seem to be doing too well. Any recommendations to help recovery for it?

Can I see a picture of the sunburn? I’d recommend repotting it in a much chunkier soil, because Hoyas are succulent like and need chunky soil and to dry out completely between waterings.

I had it in pon before and just recently repotted it because it wasn’t doing too well. Do you have chunky soils you’d recommend?

I’ve heard that fox farm mixed with a bit of extra perlite works well, but I just buy any houseplant soil mix, orchid bark, and perlite and mix them in in equal amounts.
