# I moved my Goldfish plant from my apartment (west facing window) to…

_Posted by Katelyn on 2024-11-17_

I moved my Goldfish plant from my apartment (west facing window) to my classroom (north facing window). I had researched beforehand and read that Goldfish plants would be okay in a north facing window. Is the change in light/environment the problem or could it be the time of year?? She looks so sad and I’m not sure what to do :’( any advice welcome!

Plants with that kind of stem are actually pretty easy to fix it’s growing towards the light so you actually need more light. You can get cheap grow lights on amazon for 8 bucks
