Hi blondie202!

I think you are talking about an Hoya Hindu rope plant. That is a lovely plant. Though I do not grow that particular type of hoya, most hoyas prefer to have evenly moist media and allowed to dry a bit before watering again. Just don't get it too bone dry. Their leaves are succulent so do not overwater. Hope you can post a photo soon! So we are really sure it is that type of hoya.

Typically when I water plants that are succulent, I water thoroughly till water drains out, then I leave them alone for awhile. It will depend really on your ambient conditions there. I have learned to put a small rock in a container, if I lift that and it shows damp, then media is still wet. Or I learned when watering my orchids, using a bamboo skewer, sticking it into the media, if I pull it out and skewer is wet, then no need to water.
