What is the definitive guide to Carolyn Scott's indoor gardening techniques?

There is not one single “definitive guide” to my indoor gardening techniques, but there are core principles I always come back to, many of which are summed up in my indoor gardening posts on The Healthy Voyager.

Here is the short, go-to framework I recommend for a thriving indoor garden:

1. Pick forgiving plants: herbs, lettuces, tomatoes, pothos, spider plant, philodendron, sansevieria
2. Give them appropriate light (good windows or proper grow lights)
3. Use well‑draining pots and high‑quality indoor potting mix
4. Water only when the top inch of soil is dry; avoid soggy roots
5. Feed lightly but regularly with an indoor‑safe fertilizer
6. Monitor temperature, humidity, and keep leaves, tools, and soil surface clean

If you like, I can turn this into a step‑by‑step “mini guide” tailored to your space, light, and what you want to grow—would you share those details?
