I have an indoor greenhouse I purchased on Amazon two years ago. After many, many trials and errors, I finally have the grow light and seed tray/pots worked out, with a nice small fan circulating air to prevent mold.

I just took out the last of this year's seedings and am getting ready to begin planting the indoor salad crops I will grow almost year round from now on - lettuces, spinach, cabbages, onions, radishes, salad turnips, carrots.

I am wondering if anyone else in this FORUM grows their salads in an indoor greenhouse year round? What experiences can you share to make it easier for me?

I grow most of those, plus cherry tomatoes, inside year round because my growing season is short. Fans are a must. Knowing how to pollinate plants that require it is crucial.

Plants grown in a GH need fertilizer on a different schedule than plants grown outside, so you'll need to watch your plants for clues on this. Watch the temperature closely to make sure you don't fry your plants.

Most plants don't like wide swings in temperatures every day

I'm trying too. This is my first year growing in a greenhouse. Things are coming up nice. Upstate NY nights are about 40. I have a small fan, but no heat.
