I've been growing mine indoors. She does love the shade, but tolerates the bright light. I have a 400 watt hps. She could take the direct light 12" from the glass, but she does really prefer to be shaded. If I water her everyday, she can easily do the bright light, but I water her about once a week and 3 feet from the light and shaded using other plants.
She looks just like the coffee that I've grown in the past. Coffee will reward you for being in the shade instead of the sun. I repotted her once when I got her, 2-3 months ago. I will repot her again, but she seems to be very happy. I keep pinching of the terminal to get her to branch out, and she is playing along. I. now, have about 6 "tops."
ps. Pinching the tops has worked wonderfully. I have more than a dozen tops, now. She's been moved to a 3 gallon bucket. Recently, I have a problem with distorted and pale leaves. It looks like insect damage, but I can't find any bugs. It may be because the light is so bright. I will be fertilizing soon, and I will edit this post to give you an idea if that was the problem. She's got yellow, distorted leaves that don't last long. I really doubt, that it is insect damage.
