Hi guys. The app has advised me to move my orchid further away from the window but I can’t see how to change the distance from window setting. Google search suggestions are inaccurate. Any ideas. Thanks in advance

Go to the plant on the app and scroll down until you see “change settings” one of the options in there will be Light and you should be able to chance distance from the window as long as you aren’t using a grow light

Thanks Nate but the distance from window doesn’t come up for me.

They removed that feature, it now gives you the option of the type of light it receives. Such as, full sun or shade.

It asks me for window distance at set up but I can’t seem to be able to amend it
