Thanks Bob -- that bad huh?


The environment inside a house in winter is very much different compared to
outside in the summer. Humans adapt by adding/shedding clothes and your
eyes adapt to the light conditions. You have to get the temperature high
enough as well as getting enough light. Also many bugs, fungi and other
pests thrive indoors. It is going to be a challenge if you want good fruit
and probably consume quite a bit of electricity.
