That one leaf in the back doesn't have a lamp on it. You're gonna need more lamps.

Damn that plant looks healthy. For me, this would be day 1, like look at this plant that someone else took care of before I bought it picture.

Kudos if you've had it awhile.

Thank you! It's been 5 months or so. It's surprisingly forgiving. Here's what it looked like on day 1.

About 5 months.

That seems like a huge plant for such a small pot! :o

Hood observation, I'm going to repot it in a day or so.

I received the print in the top left from an artist and she threw in that print and the risograph machine on the top right for free!
