A common small flower that grows naturally in temperate forests, arid shrublands, deserts, and tundra. Though it is often considered a weed, it is pleasant to look at, and easy to grow. Dandelions can't be planted in pots, unlike roses and daylilies. They can however be grown in growing zones, usually as quick-growing grazing animal feed.

Light

Most plants typically require at least 51% light to grow.

Decorative Plants typically require at least 30% light to grow. Dandelions falls into this light requirement.

Most artificial light sources only provide 50% light.

Analysis

Dandelions only requires a skill of "0" (zero) & a light level of 30% to grow, compared to 51% for animal feed specific hay grass.

This allows it to be grown by torch or lamp light, indoors, without a sun lamp. Also it may be grown on fungal gravel, behaving exactly the same as when grown on "natural" gravel .
