Hello all. I am extremely new to FLFs and have only owned mine for about a month. I think I know the issue but I wanted to to get your collective opinions on a solution. My plant has grown a total of 4 leaves since I have had it (2 on each branch-you can see the newest ones and the ones below them which are fairly large are from the last few weeks). HOWEVER, to me it looks like the stem is becoming quite "leggy" (growing long without leaves) and I am assuming this is a light issue. I live in Ohio (poor sunlight on the best day) and this poor guy is in a North facing window. Unfortunately I have no south facing windows to speak of so I wanted everyones advice on solutions.

So I guess my questions are

a) does this growth seem like it's in fact abnormal and an issue? (and what is the cause) and

b) has anyone had success with using exclusively a grow light (no windows access at all?) I was considering moving it away from the window where I could get a grow light basically basking down on it all the time but I don't know if this would even work.

    Needs more light, stem shouldn’t be so long between leaves and new leaves should be bigger
