Hello all:
I am a relatively new member of this group, and I looked over the most recent messages before I decided to write this post. I have a question dealing, specifically, with the general 'household plant," and the degree of sunlight that is warranted for such plants.
Question: Is there a means by which one can identify those plants that require varying degrees of sunlight? Is there a mean of relating this to the type of leaf, for example? And, if this is true, is it also true that the typical "household plant" lights that one sees in local stores are almost as effective as natural sunlight? If the answer is "yes," or "perhaps," then would it be normal to think that one should use such a light during the normal "rise and fall" of the sun throughout the day, for example, during those days and weeks of little to no sunlight for various reasons.
Thanks,
Mark
