Your plants will require artificial light support through the winter months if they cannot get enough sunlight
The hours of light, the intensity of the light, and how much light your individual plants require will vary
If you are seeing very pale leaves on your plant and sickly looking plants with small leaves and long stretches of stem, artificial lights can help
Since plants do less growing in winter, managing the proper amount of water is very important
Be sure you know the watering needs of your specific plants, and watch for signs of overwatering which is common during dormant months
All plants need humidity in the air, some more than others
Humidity will always be lower during winter months, so be sure to provide some additional humidity specific to your plants needs
Using humidifiers, grouping plants together, misting plant leaves, pebble trays with water, and moving plants to kitchens or bathrooms with higher humidity are all ways to protect your plant
Watch for strong drafts from heat vents, air conditioning systems and drafty doorways in winter
Fast, extreme temperature changes can shock plants
Fertilizing and re-potting plants should only be done if absolutely necessary
Winter months are dormant months for all plants, and disturbing them or over feeding them can cause problems
