# I’ve wanted this little plant wall for YEARS and finally got it…

_Posted by GingeredGarden on 2024-05-26_

I’ve wanted this little plant wall for YEARS and finally got it created. And now I’m realizing it probably doesn’t get as much light as I thought it did. The opposite wall is a west facing window but there’s a maple tree outside and so even though the room is bright, it’s pretty indirect and I think the plants are all too far away. I’ve been looking at grow lights but I’m just not sure what would work here so the lights are above the plants and shine into the little boxes, and still looks nice. It would also be amazing to keep cords at a minimum so that there isn’t something else for my kids, cats and dogs to play with.  
Does anyone have any ideas?

Look specifically for the in pot grow lights that are rechargeable. A bit of a hassle to recharge but it would solve the cord issue.

This is super cute btw

Oooh like a little clip ok light in each one that needs it? That’s a super smart idea. And thanks! 🥰

You could get a nice looking lamp with a led grow bulb as well! Either hanging or floor :) love the honeycombs!

I have thought about that, too, but I can’t find one that’s tall enough or would direct the light the right way.

I’d check out Amazon! I’ve seen people use this :) That way the light goes through the meshing as well. Hope you find something that works with your aesthetic!

I have a bunch of plant halo lights, they plug in but it looks like you’ve got an electrical outlet below. The light ring of the halo is a separate piece from the stick/stand thing. You could tack halo ring under the top of the shelves. If you do it on the top row, they might cast enough light for all the plants below. I have both versions and the one with the timer is great. These two give enough light to help the pothos above.
