My tip would be to be patient 😁 and focus on the main areas of indoor plant care to support a healthy plant and healthy growth. Doing that you’ll get faster growth. Research their light, humidity, temperature, appropriate watering, how to clean, and fertilizing needs.

With the light that close, watch for signs of the leaves directly under getting bleached out and wilted. I generally would not advise putting a light that close to the plant, even if the grow light doesn’t put out heat.

Thank you! I will move the light upward
