FOR SELECTED PLANT SIZES
When sun rays passes through glass windows and touches the leaves of your plant for at least 4-6 hours a day, your plant is said to be receiving indirect sun (filtered by windows). In this light intensity, your plant will cast a dark and defined shadow when placed about 30cm away from a white canvas.
This is the ideal type of sun for most houseplants, because it provides them with sufficient sunlight for photosynthesis while preventing them from being sunburnt or drying out.
e.g. with 1 metre away from the window with sun rays touching leaves of plants for at least 4-6 hours every day
e.g. less than 1 metre away from the window with sun rays touching leaves of plants for at least 4-6 hours every day
e.g. within 1 metre away from the window with sun rays touching leaves of plants for at least 4-6 hours every day
e.g. right next to the window with sun rays touching leaves of plants for at least 4-6 hours every day
e.g. right next to the window with sun rays touching leaves of plants for at least 4-6 hours every day
