Should my pink polka dot plant be this tall? There are a few new leaves at the bottom of the stem. It’s also lost a bit of the spots is that bad?

    When plants become "leggy" and loose their characteristics, its usually due to lack of light. This one needs to be trained to handle sunlight through blinds for a few hours each day for a week, then you can sit it in sunlight through blinds for 6-8 hours, or just direct sunlight(indoors) for 4-6 hours. A 24-45 watt Grow light, these need 15 hours with the light no farther than 3 inches from the top. Then....watch her leaves fill in, and be less "leggy" and more root bound and lush. DO NOT overwater! Top 3 inches needs to get dry before watering, however, after moving into sunlight...the plant will drink more so use about 2 inches dry from the top before watering. 🫨😁👍
