- Move plants a little closer to your brightest windows, but keep leaves from touching the cold glass.
- Clean the windows. Dirty glass blocks more light than you'd expect.
- Give each pot a quarter turn when you water, so it doesn't lean toward the light.
- For a dark corner, a simple LED grow light makes a real difference.
- Water less. With less light, plants grow more slowly and drink less.
