House plants

Â* Couldn't find a newsgroup that addresses house plants , so I'll ask here . I have recently started with African violets , and have a question . I have the plants in a bathroom because it's more humid on 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 . i'm pretty sure that all plants have a time of resting at night and may over the long term need it to be healthy. i'd put a much smaller/dimmer night light in a hallway or other location that will ligth the way well enough but not interfere in your own health (having any light on all night isn't good for people either). songbird |
