Wandering Jew Light Requirements
Wandering jews are pretty picky about getting the right amount of light. They need a lot of light to maintain their bright color, but direct sunlight will burn their leaves (except for tradescantia purple queen, they love growing in full sun!).
In this way, how often should I water my Wandering Jew plant?
The wandering Jew’s soil should be partially dried out between waterings. Totally dry soil is damaging, as is very wet soil. The Old Farmer’s Almanac recommends cutting back on watering during the winter months when the plant enters dormancy. Twice-monthly spring and summer additions of fertilizer are recommended.

Lack Of Light Cause A Leggy Wandering Jew Plant
If it’s under direct sun all day long then it will dry out quickly and you may notice browning on the leaves. However if it’s placed in a dim area then you will start to notice the stems elongating, the plant drooping and it will get an overall leggy appearance.
