Can’t take much credit yet…we only met yesterday at the Walmart garden center. lol think he’s adapting well to the spot I chose for him! Near east facing window and a few feet from a small full spectrum light…

You want it to do this. Think of a rainforest. This means they did a good job and they want you to do this as well

So totally normal and no sign of distress. Good to know, thanks!
