Hi guys I have a question. If a plant is considered part shade or low light, is putting it further/ lower from the grow light going to give it what it needs or is a light that is to far only going to make it leggy? I hope that makes sense.🤍🪴TIA.

    Is there a plant in particular you have in mind? Or just in general? I find that grow lights don’t really follow the normal rules of light since it’s artificial sun. Wherever you put it will be fine I’m sure.

    Grow lights are cool because they give the nutrients of light, but not the heat (if using LEDs). Very few plants are bummed out by being close to a grow light. Those that like the heat (and the dryness it brings) will miss the sun. In my experience, “bright, indirect light” = loves a grow light. More specifically, your Calathea looks ok, but your Alocasia might be too far away, if there’s no other significant light source in your room. Very cute corner, and yay for year-round Halloween decs! 🎃
