FAQ About Indirect Light for Indoor Plants
How do I measure indirect light in my home?
To measure indirect light, you can use a light meter that measures in foot-candles or lux. Place the meter at the location where your plant will grow to get a reading. Alternatively, use the shadow test: place your hand above the surface where the plant will be. If you see a distinct shadow with blurry edges, the light is likely indirect. There are also smartphone apps available that can approximate light levels using the phone's camera.
