Does anyone put a grow light on your snake plant? Wondering if it’ll like it. The rest of my plants love grow lights but didn’t know if it will burn a snake plant.

I have a grow light on my snake plant during dark dreary days, and it gets direct light in the mornings, hasn’t burned and seems to enjoy it, the new leaf it pushed out late last year has outgrown the original leaves

It depends on the intensity of the light and the proximity to the plants. Most of the common inexpensive grow lights won’t harm a snake plant. My cheaper (<$50) grow light fixtures are placed within a foot of my plants to have any noticeable effect.

Yep - I had a dark corner in my old place next to my bed with my snake plant and a lamp above it with a Philips Hue colour changing light. During the day the light was white, evening it went warm. Had this set up for years and she more than doubled in size and out grew my side lamp hanging over her 😂 so yes, they like them a lot, and doesn’t have to be a fancy grow light per se. Just any light over it will work.
