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

I’m new to gardening and seeing those cucumbers grow made me wonder if there are any plants you can grow in winter. I live in Pittsburgh, PA, so it gets pretty chilly up here. So any help would be great thanks! (:

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.
