# My first Hoya. Any tips for this new Hoya planty I picked up at Home…

My first Hoya. Any tips for this new Hoya planty I picked up at Home Depot? I’ve sprayed it down with insecticidal soap, it was bone dry so i saturated it. I plan to repot it in Molly’s mix once it’s acclimated. All suggestions and tips are appreciated! 💚

Don't listen to people that tell you to treat it like a succulent. I have all of mine potted in a mix of orchid bark, perlite, tree fern fiber and a bit of peat. They need good light. Under grow lights, I'm watering every 5-7 days. Planta schedule is WAY off for Hoya. I set a custom schedule for every 5 days, then snooze once on any that aren't quite ready.

Thank you Bunny! Will do!

I second the good light suggestion. Mine are all pretty close to grow lights. They also don’t mind a bit of heat and humidity. Mine grow fastest with good light, high humidity, and about 80\*F. I also find they love a good chunky mix. I just let it dry out completely between watering.

Thanks Elizabeth! 👍🏻

Yeah I second that Planta’s watering schedule is off for all Hoyas

Thank you! Appreciate the confirmation :)

The plant looks very healthy. No dry edges or tips.

Hoyas can stand bone dry soil. They hate overly wet soil. Do not follow a strict watering schedule. Water when the plant needs water. Overwatering will quickly kill a hoya.

Fertilize regularly.

They like east or west facing light or a good grow light. The light will bring out whiter tints and pink colors.

I grow mine in a chunky soil mixed with cactus soil they do good if you let them dry out a bit before watering. And do wonderfully outside under a covered patio or at least all mine do. Have fun.

Thanks Pixie!

I checked the Molly potting mixes. Only the aroid mix looked close enough to be a hoya mix. You are paying a higher price for the premixed convenience. Sometimes it’s worth it especially if you only have a few plants and don’t want to store a lot of potting mix ingredients. I recommend mixing your own if you have 10 to 20 hoyas. There are many formulas. You can try googling a hoya mix. Try on a few small hoyas and cuttings to get a feel for a mix that works for you.

The pic shows a mix I made for hoya rooted cuttings. The bits are smaller than I use with my lager plants. 🍀🪴

Thank you! I only have one but I can mix something up for this Hoya. Like you said, I buy it for convenience and not having storage space for all the components. Thanks again for the advice!!!! 💚
