You put a lot of effort into it, after reading exactly how you do it, it's even more remarkable. I must honestly confess that I don't have anywhere near your enthusiasm and experience in this regard and have rather always made it easy for myself by owning exactly one single plant and even that ended up in the dustbin thanks to a nasty neighbour because he couldn't stand me putting it in the stairwell in winter as it found it too warm in my flat.
Now that I have to deal with up to fifteen plants at once, I see how much effort you have to make to see each one and give it the right care. You seem to be really good at that.
Aloe vera seems to me to be quite a resilient plant. LOL - I've been hard on it the last few weeks and then made up for it. It has recovered from the damage caused by the move. In the new house and staircase I saved a whole box of aloe vera, remaining there while the owner long gone, all of which were already so dried out and almost dead that I didn't have much hope of reviving them. But it succeeded! Unbelievable, this plant!
I hope it doesn't eat too much into your electricity bills as you really need a lot of light. On the other hand, it certainly warms up the room and you probably don't have to turn up your heating as much as without the lights.
If you're growing next to windows without grow lights, a crafty way to help them would be using something like a painters plastic (semi see-through) to make somewhat of a greenhouse enclosure, trapping heat and moisture, but other things could be utilized to make these enclosures. It may dampen the light they receive, so this could come with some drawbacks and may only be useful for certain plants.
I will spare the effort an be the evil gardener who just witnesses which plants can make it by themselves and survive the harsh conditions in the wintergarden. So I will get used to which plants that might be and which I will not purchase. They will get watered and also I put nutrients in the water but apart from that I think I won't put too much effort in this. Priorities are elsewhere;)
I hug you back!
