Indoor gardening is a very unique hobby. With this practice, you attempt to create conditions indoors that plants normally need to thrive outdoors. Indoor gardening can be simple as keeping a couple of houseplants, or as complex as a large vertical farm. While technology has made the practice much more approachable for beginners, people still have a good deal of questions about indoor gardening. Of these, Soltech Solutions has received a number of inquires about outdoor conditions affecting indoor gardens. To help our customers feel more confident, Soltech Solutions put together this brief article on planting zones and what they mean for your indoor garden.

If you opt to grow a photoperiodic plant species indoors, beware that changes in the length of night and day outdoors will have an influence on your garden. However, you can regulate plant growth with a plant grow light.
Certain regions of central California experience hot, dry summers and cool, rainy winters. Known as a “Mediterranean climate,” this part of the country has dramatically different humidity levels between summer and winter. If you are growing plants that like humidity in this part of California, you will have to supplement with a humidifier during the summer months.
Aside from a few small exceptions, most indoor gardens are not greatly influenced by the climatic influences of planting zones. As long as you keep your home properly insulated from the environment outside, and maintain a stable climate, your houseplants should do well wherever you live.
