Indoor Plant Stress Phenomena

FAQ About Indoor Plant Stress Phenomena

Can indoor plants get stressed from inadequate lighting?

Yes, inadequate lighting can stress indoor plants significantly. Plants require light for photosynthesis, which is essential for growth and energy production. If a plant doesn't receive enough light, it may exhibit signs of stress like slow growth, leggy stems, or pale leaves. Conversely, too much direct sunlight can cause leaf burn, leading to brown patches. Selecting the right location with appropriate lighting is key to preventing light-induced stress.
