I gathered all the plants in one corner and put the new grow light I purchased yesterday. My living room has no sun coming through. All my plants are well even without the sun only had trouble with rubber plant. Is this grow light decent size for these many plants or should I get a different one? Thank you! ☺️
My experience is that grow Lights loose effectiveness really fast the farther the plant is from it. More than 2 feet away and it's no longer effective. While this is probably better, ideally you will need more than one light.

Without any natural light coming into the room I think you may see your plants start to struggle. They can look okay for quite a while in inadequate light, but they’ll slowly decline because they simply aren’t getting enough energy to sustain themselves. For that many plants, I think that grow light is much too small to provide meaningful coverage. I’d either add several more or go with a larger/brighter setup that can cover the whole grouping. I’d also aim the lights more downward toward the plants/soil rather than across the room—you want the light hitting the foliage from above as much as possible. 😊
