If I have an LED lamp on my desk above keyboard, and have succulents near the keyboard also under the LED lamp, does that count as "grow light"? It's within 6 inches of the lamp? And I have it for long hrs. ...though I don't see any difference on the succulents... could they be dead? 🤷♀️ 🤔
you'd know if they were dead I think. plants are pretty resilient. the led probably helps keep them alive but isn't exactly what they need to thrive and grow big

A regular led will kill them slowly. unless it’s a full spectrum. There’s not a large enough variety of wavelengths in a “normal” led to promote growth. Grow lights tend to be higher wattage too. Succulents especially need a pretty high lumen output.

It'd need supplementation with sunlight. Or change the bulb to a 60watt grow light
