I have these and strip lights, I’ve noticed the plants under the actual bulbs are thriving way more than under the strips!! (Bought from Amazon) my monstera has been putting out so much new growth!

Thanks! Is yours in a lamp that is pointing directly at it? Or more of a regular lamp?

I have to adjust the height since it’s grown but, i think what i have is just called a light cord hanging above (I’ll attach a pic), if you get those lights they will work with any E26 base!
