# I have hanging plants, but the room I want to put them in doesn’t…

I have hanging plants, but the room I want to put them in doesn’t have enough light. Does anyone have ideas/inspo to share of a grow light system that isn’t shelf based?

You could maybe try the lamps, some of them have tops that can bend too so you can get a good amount of light

try out the LED strips people use for seed-starting. they stick to the ceiling like normal strips but they're really bright

I used some very easy to install t8 led light bars on the ceiling above my hanging plants, this also provides a generous amount of light for my other nearby plants like the ones on top my shelf

I have socket extenders and grow bulbs in my ceiling light

Hmmm this sounds tricky. From my understanding with grow lights, they need to be very very close to the plants. 🤔
