# My plants are growing smaller leaves lately. Is that pretty normal…

_Publicado por Laylay el 2026-01-10_

My plants are growing smaller leaves lately. Is that pretty normal with less daylight hours? I feel like even the ones I have lights on are growing smaller leaves. What is usually the cause?? I bought some fertilizer because I haven't really given them any in a long time, I'm ordering new lights for the ones that use them as well. Any advice?

Sounds like you've got it covered. Fertilizer should help.

That's what I was thinking. I've been doing research and it's been back and forth and all over the place pretty much lol. I'm hoping the bulbs I bought help. I need to buy a tripod or something too, but decent ones can rack up.

I’ve been having the same problem! I guess I need to get some fertilizer also. And I also need more grow lights, when I started this plant hobby I didn’t know it could get so expensive 😂
