Too little light?

I’ve literally just gotten a #begoniaforex and I have a feeling that he’s gonna become a quick favourite. I just wanted to see if this light level is ok?? It’s a little bit of a dark spot since it’s around the corner from the window, but I don’t have any space anywhere that is close to the window without him getting burnt. Is this spot ok or will he struggle?

I have a couple begonias and they like more light than where you have it right now, at least that is my experience! You will be able to tell quickly with that one! He will scream at you in a couple days by being droopy and leaves starting to fade! If it were mine, I would move him or give him a grow light🪴🌼 Good Luck!
@Ponytailmom I do have some shelves with grow lights, but I’m slowly running out of room! Will see how he does and rejig shelves as necessary. Thank you!
@PiousWaterfern that is why I am in the process of building me a massive greenhouse! 😂 once a plant addict always a plant addict! 🤣
