Lighting is going to be the death of me!! 🫠

I finally caved and decided to get a plant stand, because with the grow light and windows open I'm pretty sure the family is not getting proper bright indirect light. My space gets sun but it's not super bright during the day due to all the big trees outside near my windows.

Do you recommend getting the family closer to the window and using the grow light or will the grow light be over kill? My elephant ear keeps popping out new leaves but sacrificing 2-3 others at a time 🤦‍♀️ (in today's sacrificial ritual 3 are on the line 😳)

Get a light meter. Good light is 400 FC and above.

What do you think about the one built into the app?

App/phone light meters are unfortunately often inaccurate and inconsistent. Don’t need to spend a lot, the cheapest one you can find is suitable.
