Designing an Indoor Greenhouse in Illinois: Plant Selection Depends on Light and Temperature

Dan (IIT architecture student) designs indoor park with geothermal soil temps 55–65°F, low winter sun, supplemental evening lighting. Asks plant species for sustainable indoor greenhouse.

Will Creed: Key factors: temperature range and light. 55–65°F suits only tropical/semi-tropical plants (temperate Illinois plants won't thrive). Light needs vary: some need full sun, others deep shade. Humidity less critical. Soil, watering, nutrients need expert care. Cannot recommend specific species without light details and caretaker expertise.
