I’m in NE, had extra room in the basement, so figured we’d try, mainly to learn. We started with a few different seeds to see what we could grow. It’s a jungle now! Basically the seeds need to be treated like babies and can start cheap in styrofoam cups or the seedling cups. They like being on a heated mat. Once they start growing, transfer to bigger pot (they’re all finicky). The bigger the pot, the bigger they’ll grow. Through trial and error, it was easiest to water from the bottom bc the roots grown down. We poke hole in the cups and drill into some of the planters. You can tell who needs water to by how heavy the pots are. About every ten days or so we give them food, iguana juice. Lights are on a timer. They need light 14-16 hours a day since it’s not natural light. That’s about all I got!
One more thing, they love to be talked to and music. The animals love the room and our cat even tries to groom them when the leaves need to pruned.
