ðą How to Care for Hoya crassipetiolata to Prevent Grey Mould?
ð§ How to Water
Water thoroughly only when the top 1-2 inches of soil are dry to the touch, then allow excess water to drain completely. Reduce frequency in winter to every 2-3 weeks to avoid root rot.
âïļ Lighting
Place the plant in a spot with bright indirect light, near a bright window. Avoid direct midday sun, which can burn the thick leaves; insufficient light slows growth and prevents flowering.
