I’m a chronic overthinker/planner and would appreciate any advice. I currently have my mint tissue culture acclimated fully and it’s doing well under a grow light but the Photone app doesn’t show it having a stellar light output.

It’s starting to get nicer out and I eventually want to set him outside for increasing amounts of time but are there any guidelines to introducing more sun time? The second picture shows the current light rating for the spot it’s currently in. That’s 1700 vs the tiny varying numbers from the grow light.

Should I start with an hour? 5 minutes? Morning/afternoon only? Ideally I’d just leave it on the windowsill but until I get a heavier cache pot and maybe some museum putty, it’s a very tempting target for my cat.

Any advice is completely appreciated, I have no idea what I’m doing or how he’s still even alive when my dracaena hates me. His name is Mojito.
