[net.garden] Indoor environment questions

sam@ahuta.UUCP (sam) (03/08/85)

After a long dry winter I am finally going to
work on some environmental control for my
houseplants.
The elements that must be considered are
temperature, humidity and light.

Temperature isn't much of a problem.
After all, most houseplants like the temper-
atures that people like.
Humidity ought to be isolated as I don't wish
rot on my succulents.
Light will be artificial as even my south facing
window doesn't admit as much as we'd like.

Is there any experience on the net that could
help me?
Is the concept of an indoor "greenhouse" bad?
What problems can I expect from serious lighting?
Is there any general advice on indoor gardening
out there?
Answers to these and other exciting questions
will be appreciated and digested fully.
