Hello all.

I am new to these groups and to gardening in general. *I live in a
small apartment and have no outside area but I really want to improve
my skills with growing and I want to have more living things around my
place. * Bonsai has always fascinated me and I think i am ready to
give it a try. *I have started with one of those cheap kits growing
from seeds. *I am planning to put this one next to the grow light that
is hooked up to my girlfriends Aerogarden. * I know this isn't ideal
but I am not too interested in this particular plant (it's more of a
tester and if it works then I will keep it). *I have no outside area,
I have no good window to put the plants on and I don't have a lot of
space.

I would, however like to give it a real try with some other plants.
What I was thinking was to have a few small wall hung shelves to hold
the plants on with small grow lights on each. *Maybe the small LED
ones, if they work well. *I was also thinking I may need a
humidification system. *I live in the L.A. area in Southern
California. *I would really like to grow various species from seeds.
I like the small size trees (less than 10") and maybe eventually try
some forest styles with mini-bonsai.

I know that things don't like to grow indoors but it seems there must
be a way. *Please if you could give any advice on how to make this
work, I would really appreciate it. *I have never been much good at
growing plants and want to learn. *I know that bonsai is a bit
ambitious but it is what I am most interested in.

Thank you for the help,
Bill

P.S. sorry for posting to multiple groups but i wanted it to get to
anyone that could help.
