What can I do to get them more light and warmth even though it’s winter? Will regular lights work as well as sunlight for photosynthesis or is it the wrong wavelength? I don’t want to buy any specialized lamps or bulbs for them.
What should I do to keep them warm? Will keeping them in an airtight container help keep heat in? Should I blow in it to add moisture and CO2?
I am also planning on growing a mango pit that I got out of a mango from the grocery store, but I think I will wait for spring. Any tips for that too?
Mainly I just want to know if it’s possible to have warm-climate plants thrive in a house at 20 degrees C, or should I basically just rip them out and wait until spring?
When the oranges came up they had 2 shoots and I cut one off… is that y they stop growin

The indians used to put dead fish where their crops were to help it grow, so maybe the crap will do that.

Also had really good dirt and lots of sunny windows. The tomatoes didn’t get as big as outside but they were good. Also grew a few carrots believe it or not. Got a deep welled pot so the carrots could expand and grow and the vegetation (green part on top of soil) was really pretty as a house plant. Looked like a fern. Way cool. But one must remember to get a big enough pot for expansion of the roots so it thinks it is in a garden. Good luck. Have fun. Your friends will be amazed. Also to point, mixed miracle grow in large container and did the “continuous feed” thing. Whereas, they get “fed” on a continuous basis but not overly much to burn them.

What’s the optimal temp. it should be at and how long before the fruit reaches full maturity?

I’d love to grow veg but even if I had a garden I wouldn’t have the time to weed and maintain it, using bins and buckets never occurred to me. I’d love to hear from people who are in the same boat as me and the solutions they found.
Thanks in advance.

The last two years, I have had cherries come out on it and I am not sure if they are even edible. My kids have tried them and said they are really sour. What is up with that. Can that happen? And can you eat the fruit?

Is it possible? How? Can fruit trees (like oranges, tangelos, lemons, and grapefruits) be kept (if planted as a baby tree) in a large pot or something other than actual ground? Thanks so much and God bless!!
