Hey everyone! I'm new to the succulent world, and my almost 5-year-old son is super into them too. Currently, his room only has one north-facing window, and I've got his little plants set up in a west-facing window with some basic grow lights in another room. But he really wants the succulents in his own room. I need recommendations for good grow lights that won't be harsh on his eyes since he'll be playing in there a lot. Any suggestions? Thanks in advance!

A good grow light tends to be pretty bright, so finding one that's softer on the eyes could be tricky. You might want to check out the Sansi clip-on lights; they're a decent brand and you can usually tilt them to aim away from the room.
Thanks for the tip! I’ll definitely look into them. With how quickly he’s collecting plants, we might need more than one light soon. Maybe we could keep them off when he’s home since he’s at preschool for about eight hours. I was thinking about building a cabinet and tinting some plexiglass, but it’s really humid here, so that might just lead to soggy succulents!
