Mountain lacquer tree is a plant that thrives under abundant sunlight exposure, though it also manages in conditions with a moderate light supply. Coming from an origin habitat where the sun's illumination is potent, it is imperative for its robust growth and health. Disproportionate sunlight could lead to potential harm, with insufficient light weakening it, and excessive light causing potential damage.

Indoor plants require adequate lighting for optimal growth. When natural sunlight is insufficient, particularly in winter or in less sunny spaces, artificial lights offer a vital solution, promoting faster, healthier growth. 1. Choose the right type of artificial light: LED lights are a popular choice for indoor plant lighting because they can be customized to provide the specific wavelengths of light that your plants need. Full sun plants need 30-50W/sq ft of artificial light, partial sun plants need 20-30W/sq ft, and full shade plants need 10-20W/sq ft. 2. Determine the appropriate distance: Place the light source 12-36 inches above the plant to mimic natural sunlight. 3. Determine the duration: Mimic the length of natural daylight hours for your plant species. most plants need 8-12 hours of light per day.
