What to do, about my Wandering Jew?(Details.)

Asked by MrGrimm888 (19409points) 4 hours ago

I grew a huge “Wandering Jew” plant, this summer.
The plant is very important, to me.
It’s currently in a 5 gallon bucket, but protrudes several feet in all directions.
I’ve had it outside all summer, in a brick structure I built for it.
Winter is coming.
These plants are VERY hearty, but like most will die in frost/cold.

My parents have a porch, with sliding doors that are really dark like sunglasses for the porch.

I’d like to move the plant onto that enclosed porch, for the winter. My concern is that it might not get enough Sun.

I know we have some jellies, with green thumbs. Any advice?

The porch may be fine but make sure it doesn’t get too cold. Wandering dude plants prefer bright, indirect light, such as from an east or west facing window. Too much direct sunlight can cause the leaves to burn, while too little light can cause the foliage to fade.
Temps should stay above 60F and like high humidity. It will become dormant in the winter and require less watering.
