FAQ About Indoor Plant Livelihood with Artificial Light

How do I calculate the amount of light my indoor plants need?
The light requirement for plants is often measured in "foot candles" or "lux." A general rule is that bright light plants need approximately 2000-4000 lux, medium light plants 1000-2000 lux, and low light plants require 500-1000 lux. Using a light meter can help accurately measure the light intensity reaching your plants.
