Hoya Compacta Issues
I bought this variegated Hoya Compacta about a month ago from a local nursery and it’s easily one of my favorites at this point. It’s been just hanging out, looking exactly the same up until about a few days ago where a couple of the white leaves got soft and wrinkled and then turned brown (which you can see on the right). I had recently watered it, so when I noticed the two leaves going soft, I did pull it out to check the roots and swapped the soil out for the chunky mix I make (FF ocean forest, charcoal, orchid bark, perlite); the mix it came in seemed good, but I figured it was worth ruling out and making sure there wasn’t root rot or something.
Now the leaf above it is starting to do the same thing. Should I have also mixed in some cactus/succulent soil to make sure it’s not a watering issue? Am I doing something else wrong? The left cutting is unchanged and I had repotted it back in the original nursery pot. No sign of any pests either.
