How much light for my silver inch? It’s close to a window and I have a grow light on it for 6 hours a day.

That should be good!!!  
I’ve had one for three years now! They are basically indestructible, but they have a habit of getting leggy. One thing I’ve learned is that they don’t actually like to hang down, they prefer to climb up like a vine. The wandering Jew (or silver inch whatever you want to call it) is truly one of the best plants out there!

Thank you! Do you recommend a small trellis or moss pole?

#### snazzy man antwoordde op 2024-02-26

Either or should work. I prefer trellises but it’s really just a personal preference

Agree weight being pulled down cause more stress and plants actually thrive and prosper when they are tied or held up by something
