Hey everyone! I'm just starting out with gardening and I've noticed that my plants look pretty droopy. After some advice, it's clear they probably need more light since I don't have windows getting good direct sunlight. Can anyone suggest reliable grow lights? I've seen so many types on TikTok that I'm feeling a bit overwhelmed!

Check out this one from Spider Farmer: https://www.spider-farmer.com/products/sf-2000-led-grow-light/. It's been fantastic for my citrus trees! Just make sure to shop around; they have good options and full kits too.
Definitely check the site linked; they've got plenty of great options including full kits. My experience led me to buy cheaper lights at first, but my plants struggled. If I had invested in good lighting earlier, my plants would have thrived much sooner! They do offer some budget-friendly lights too.
$87 for half the light intensity of the one you mentioned? The cheaper option looks like it might be better on their site.
Is it true that different lights are needed for houseplants versus flowers? Also, does the light color really make a difference?
I use adjustable LED grow lights and they work great! It's awesome because I can set the intensity for different stages of growth, and they have a switch for either Veg or Flower mode. Super handy!
What brand are they? Looking to get something similar!

Those look really nice, but they seem pricey for a beginner. Are there cheaper options under $100?
