How do succulents do under a grow light?

They do really well you just want to make sure you have the proper output and spectrum bulbs. Most succulents require a lot more “daylight hours” under grow lights too. There’s tons of articles online detailing all the ins and outs of time, etc.

I’m stalking the forums today lol

I keep my bear claw succulent next to my beta tank and its only light source is a grow light above the tank. It’s been doing just fine for weeks now so I was wondering if others would do the same. I’ve never had good luck with succulents especially when I put them in the window sill with great sunlight?? It doesn’t make sense to me!

Neither have I! my cacti do okay but I find succulents especially like echeveria do not do well for me in natural light

Currently my succulent. He’s has wonderful light in the kitchen window and not doing as great as he should. I don’t get it lol

This is some of my setup (ignore damaged cactus, that was human error)

And that lamp has a grow light I’m guessing?! So cool!

Yeah, forgot to mention they also sell just bulbs lol

All of my succulents have been doing soooo well since I put them under grow lights!

I think they could do great as long as you make sure they have enough lighting. Some succulents have very low light needs, and some need full sun. I kept my succulents alive over winter using grow lights and window sills.🤪
