My Zebra plants are very leggy in the center. I think I need to change the soil to make for more drainage. Any other suggestions? Do you think they need more light? I have them in a NW facing window.

My understanding is plants become leggy only when they’re searching out more light. So the answer is more light. Unless there is something I am missing

Thank you! I’m going to move it to a spot with more light.
