here . I have recently started with African violets , and have a

average . The question is about light , the lights in that bathroom are
on 24/7 , we use it as a night light . I got to wondering if this is bad
for the African violets . The spider plant in there has been doing very
well , as have other plants . There is also a planter of Achimenes in
there , and since it's related to the violets I wonder about it too .
They're not showing any signs of stress , but I still wonder if this is
the best thing for them .

Most bathroom lighting does not emit anything close to the spectrum of
natural sunlight. Unless your African violets are in a sunny window
they will suffer. Even the so called "Grow Lights" one can buy don't
really help much.
I used to be into African violets. There's a huge store/greenhouse in
upstate NY that specializes in african violets, a huge operation, I've
been there several times. If you have questions they are who to ask.
