I'm looking to add some plants to my room and would prefer ones that can thrive indoors since my condo only has minimal sunlight through a window. If possible, I'd like to grow some edible varieties. Any suggestions?

You might also enjoy growing lemon balm! It's great for making tea and adds a nice touch to your indoor garden.
Microgreens are awesome! I particularly like the black sunflower seeds; they're dense and grow quickly, usually ready in about a week and a half, but they need some sunlight as they mature.
I bought a ZZ plant for my office, and it's been amazing! It's super low maintenance and doesn't need a lot of light, making it perfect for indoor settings.
If you're into greens, I highly recommend starting with some lettuce varieties, like Grand Rapids lettuce, it’s super easy! Herbs are also a great option—parsley, sage, thyme, and oregano grow well indoors too.
I kicked things off with an indoor shelf and added a grow light. Microgreens and lettuce are fantastic first plants—they're quick to grow and give you a great start! ?

Thanks for the tip on microgreens! How long do they usually take to grow?
