Help! I moved to Louisiana and put my hoya outside and the leaves are browning and dieing. This is happening pretty rapidly, over 2 or 3 days for the browning. My picture sucks but it is pretty widespread on the plant
Seems to me like you know what is happening to your plant already by the phrase “I put my hoya outside”.
Some plants can be outside, but if they are used to be inside and you change environment very quickly without adaptation period, they suffer. Yours seems like it got burned from the sun.
In any case hoya are resilient if they are a big plant like yours, just put it back where it was and keep taking care of it the same as before and it should recover. Try to not baby it in excess or overwater the plant, just leave it be and heal.
Gotcha that makes sense. It won’t flower and my sister told me it probably needs more sun.
It might love the outside sun, but it just needs to get used to it slowly. Bring it inside, and if it goes back to being healthy, you can let it slowly adapt to the outdoors by putting it outside in the shade for a few hours each day for a week, then the whole day for a week, then move it into partial sun and leave it outside 24/7 and see what happens.
