# Hello everyone, I started sprouting these bird of paradise seeds in…

_Posted by Giulia on 2024-01-09_

Hello everyone,  
I started sprouting these bird of paradise seeds in late October and they’ve been in soil for over a month. They’re doing great.  
Since my apartment is not very bright, instead of keeping moving the vase next to the only window that gets good light, I decided to buy this grow LED light and but it on a shelf in my bookshelf.  
The light is set on the minimum brightness and it’s about 4 inches from the little plants.  
Do you think this will work or is it too much for the baby plants?

Thank you!!! Any tips appreciated!
