Hey hey planty people 💚 I need some tips/care advice. I just got a small Variegated Maranta and have another bigger one coming in the mail this week. It is my very first time trying a Maranta so I am truly clueless about how to care for them. I have been binge-watching videos about them and have learnt that they want medium indirect light which is so hard for me to assess what that means? Lol 😂 I have my plants in my living room which has a big East facing window which does get a lot of direct light in the mornings. I initially thought about placing it as seen on the left picture which is a TV console table about 7 ft away from the window. It does get some direct-ish sun rays (as you can probably see) in the mornings but Idk if it is too little light. Then I thought about placing it about 1-2 feet below my T5 Barrina lights in one of my shelves (see right picture). But again, I don’t know if that is too little light. I want to keep this plant healthy and also keep the variegation consistent 🩷 If anyone can offer some guidance, I would really appreciate it 🙏🏻
