Quick answer: Lemongrass generally grows best in full sun, ideally six or more hours of direct light per day once acclimated.
Outdoor location
Choose a warm site with plenty of sun and well-draining soil.
Container growing
Use a large pot with drainage holes. Containers dry faster than garden beds in summer.
Indoors
Place near your brightest window or use an appropriate grow light if natural light is limited.
Avoid sudden sunburn
Move indoor plants into direct outdoor sun gradually over several days.
Signs of low light
Sparse, weak or leaning foliage can signal insufficient light, though watering and root conditions also matter.
