I brought home this beauty in Dec. and believe the first spot had too bright/ direct light because a leaf dropped and another tip burnt. I moved it and have since had a new leaf but still feel like she could be happier? I just got this greg and the app says it should be closer to a window (it’s now 6 ft from an east facing window). Would this grow light help or be too much? This is the dimmest setting, if anyone has tips before I start using it I would hate to backtrack any progress I’ve made so far! #Philodendron #PrinceofOrange

I’ve made mine strickly a house plant πŸͺ΄ and put it in indirect light. Doing quite well so far 😊πŸͺ΄
@SunnySunshine Thank you for the reply! Do you think this light is too direct? I’m not the most experienced with house plants
@Jessejohn Thank you for the reply! The grow light at the dimmest setting doesn’t seem too harsh but when the soil got a bit dry it toppled over and took the plant with it because I don’t think the pot was deep enough for the stake to not wobble at that height… unfortunate design - I have had no grow light and it isn’t withering but no new leaves either. It did get a leaf torn when it fell though /:
@Jessejohn It’s still in the nursery pot and I need to repot it soon, I have some orchid bark on hand I will mix in- I appreciate the recc!
