I read that they weep tears, anything I need to know when they do this? Also does it look to close to the above grow light? Tia🤍🪴

Is the grow light the bathroom vanity light?

Yes

I’d say it’s fine. My silver dragon alocasia is about a foot from my grow light and it’s thriving. The newest leaf is at least double the size of all the previous ones and it didn’t lose a leaf putting out a new one.

It’s called guttation and it’s completely normal
