My room typically stays in the 60 degree range Re-planted two days ago (all theee: aloe, snake \& hawthoria) with cactus soil mix, perlite, fertilizer food and a touch of coffee grounds 🌿🌿🌿 ![Attachment 1 of 1](https://images.getplanta.com/v1/resize/fdIxdVfr4m1aTNUZrHywQ_7UnJp9aPtuj5ln7M7msyc/60jEsu-WQ3ekFHpvS1Js9Q.webp?size=large) ## 17 comments ### 9thFloorGreenHouse commented on 2025-08-19 I just started and I love them! My plants are growing straight instead of leaning. And I love not chasing the sun around or shielding my plants from too much sun through the windows. It feels a little bit like cheating. #### ShaylaFae replied on 2025-08-19 I hate having my shades open when I have close neighbors especially in my bedroom… gods forbid I come from the shower and “oops” here’s a show lmao ### Nunyabzwx commented on 2025-08-19 I have growlights all over my apartment , all different kinds and all different colors 😅😅 but my plants love them.. #### ShaylaFae replied on 2025-08-19 Good😁 definitely trying to be more pro active with them and this app helps a lot! ### Nunyabzwx commented on 2025-08-19 I have all my windows open in my bedroom all day and my east window is open day and night. People in my apartment complex comment on it looking like a jungle in there 😅🙈🙈 but they can't see anything because of all the plants in that window #### ShaylaFae replied on 2025-08-19 🤣🤣🤣🥰🥰🥰🌿🌿🌿🌿🌿🌿🌿 ### LittleMorningLatte commented on 2025-08-19 I have three grow lights in my bedroom and I still need more 😭✊ ### Sunny commented on 2025-08-19 I use most of my grow lights in winter when I can’t keep my plants outside. Three rooms look like stadium lights are on 12 hours a day! I found out the little single plant lights are useless. So, I now go big!🤩💡💡💡 ### Mads commented on 2025-08-19 I’ll put it this way… there are more grow lights in my house than regular lights… #### ShaylaFae replied on 2025-08-19 🤣🤣😆😆🌿🌿🌿 I love it! I want to get a gothic plant for the living room one day! 😍 it would look amazing as heck with all my books (I’m fantasy dark romance reader) so I have a huge fantasy witchy theme going on out there #### Mads replied on 2025-09-01 Oo live goth plants! Let us know what you pick! ### Dot2462 commented on 2025-08-19 I have four grow lights on my lower level, one is a cluster of three. My plants love them and I too think they help with keeping the plants growing straight. The one I have on my fiddle leaf fig is a thin column which gets light in between the leaves and I just rotate it periodically. I especially like the fact that three of them have timers so when I go on vacation, I know that they’re gonna still get enough light without me having to leave the window coverings open. I ordered a wall adapter with a timer for one of them that didn’t have one built-in. I walked down the stairs each morning and my plants are already soaking in light for the day. #### ShaylaFae replied on 2025-08-19 Niiiice that’s awesome 😎 ### ElleLovesPlants commented on 2025-08-19 Ayyyy, I see that throne of glass on your shelf! #### ShaylaFae replied on 2025-08-21 That’s my bedroom book case 🥰📚📚📚📚 ### Waspinator commented on 2025-08-20 I have one. At first I got it to keep my tropical bonsai alive in winter, and it's been great! Also I've upgraded to a white light since my old pink one burned out; it worked well enough but that color kinda hurt my eyes #### ShaylaFae replied on 2025-08-21 Ya when I’m ready for bed I turn em off then back on in the morning. 🥰 --- _Source: the Planta community (https://getplanta.com).
