# I have a new ficus tree and have it in my bedroom. I have a grow…

_Pubblicato da Liam il 2024-10-01_

I have a new ficus tree and have it in my bedroom. I have a grow light shining on it and a bright window across the room. The windowsill is too small for the pot. Will it be okay under the light?

My ginseng sits RIGHT in front of my Barrina grow light and just loves it there. I would just watch out for leaf burn due to too much light. It depends on what grow light you're using and how your plant is reacting to it.

Oh, and be careful when spraying your plant with certain products/insecticides like neem oil, which can exacerbate light exposure

Just sprayed with water! I know these plants grow in tropical environments

This is one of my ficus that that has had a plant light for about two months. This plant has grown about 12 inches in that time, and is now branching out beautifully. Definitely, get a plant light; you won’t regret it! 🤗💚🪴

Wow this is so awesome! How many hours of light did you give to it each day?

#### Lynda ha risposto il 2024-10-01

During the summer, I used the 18 hour setting, but, often turned the light out earlier than that, so that we weren’t bothered while watching TV,🙄…Now, I have turned it down to a 12 hour setting. I don’t know if plants should have a rest from plant lights, or not; that’s a question I have to ask Planta members. So, get yourself a plant light, and make your plant happy! (you, too!)… 🤗💚🪴

Sorry, for some reason, I had trouble getting both pics in the same post,(???-help!)…but, I wanted to show you what my ficus looked like at the beginning of summer. Amazing difference, huh!  
So, feel comfortable getting a light… 🤗💚🪴

Liam… check out this post; I sent my return post to you, to the wrong person. It’s regarding your questions on plant lights…🤗💚🪴
