That's what my mom calls it; 'The Cave' lol

Technically there are windows but the ones in the front are completely covered with plastic and thick shades which I can't open because they are facing a main road/sidewalks and people like to peek in. Not to mention I live across the street from a homeless/mentally unstable institution housing of which which the residents are allowed to roam freely. I also live in a neighborhood where there are a lot of crack cocaine users. So those windows need to be light tight. We've been robbed before, despite the windows being non-see through. Its best none of the inside light can get out so they don't know when we are home.

The windows at the back of the house are also covered in plastic. They go into the back porch which is boarded up. Even if it wasn't, those windows have shelves and are used for food. The back porch isn't heated so they can't be put out there either.

So yeah, there are no windows. lol

I've set the 2 aloe plants I have off to the side of the light in the hope that they will recover.

They should recover. They seem to like indirect light rather than direct.
