For those that live in zones with frosty fall and winter weather, some plants are simply out of reach for planting outdoors.<\/p>\n<p>However, bring them indoors and the world of plant possibilities opens up. Tropical plants, seedlings, and even vegetables that are out of season all suddenly become options when you have the power of an indoor greenhouse at your disposal.<\/p>\n<p>Yes, I suppose bringing the plants indoors adds some level of protection already. But even areas near windows or in front of an accidentally open door can quickly kill your plants in winter. A closed greenhouse keeps temperatures consistent and limits stress, giving you the ideal environment for growth.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-better-environment-for-your-plants\">Better environment for your plants<\/h3>\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"673\" height=\"1200\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml,%3Csvg%20xmlns='http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg'%20width='673'%20height='1200'%20viewBox='0%200%20673%201200'%3E%3C\/svg%3E\" alt=\"Close up of a humidifier\/diffuser.\" class=\"wp-image-18349 perfmatters-lazy\" data-pin-media=\"https:\/\/www.ruralsprout.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/indoor-greenhouse-DIY-9062.jpg\" id=\"mv-trellis-img-5\" data-trellis-processed=\"1\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.ruralsprout.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/indoor-greenhouse-DIY-9062.jpg\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/www.ruralsprout.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/indoor-greenhouse-DIY-9062.jpg 673w, https:\/\/www.ruralsprout.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/indoor-greenhouse-DIY-9062-168x300.jpg 168w, https:\/\/www.ruralsprout.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/indoor-greenhouse-DIY-9062-188x335.jpg 188w, https:\/\/www.ruralsprout.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/indoor-greenhouse-DIY-9062-195x347.jpg 195w, https:\/\/www.ruralsprout.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/indoor-greenhouse-DIY-9062-292x520.jpg 292w, https:\/\/www.ruralsprout.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/indoor-greenhouse-DIY-9062-359x640.jpg 359w, https:\/\/www.ruralsprout.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/indoor-greenhouse-DIY-9062-431x768.jpg 431w, https:\/\/www.ruralsprout.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/indoor-greenhouse-DIY-9062-538x960.jpg 538w, https:\/\/www.ruralsprout.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/indoor-greenhouse-DIY-9062-606x1080.jpg 606w, https:\/\/www.ruralsprout.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/indoor-greenhouse-DIY-9062-150x267.jpg 150w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 673px) 100vw, 673px\"><figcaption>For happy houseplants, high humidity is key<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<p>Temperature is not the only environmental factor that an indoor greenhouse can help with.

Rather than having houseplants dotted around various rooms \u2013 leading you to forget about a few of them \u2013 an indoor greenhouse makes easy access and care a priority.<\/p>\n<p>For those with small gardens or perhaps no outdoor garden space at all, an indoor greenhouse will make a world of difference. Depending on the size of your cabinet, you can grow almost anything without needing a single square foot of outdoor space. From microgreens to cacti and more, the options are endless.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-interesting-decor-feature\">Interesting d\u00e9cor feature<\/h3>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"960\" height=\"1200\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml,%3Csvg%20xmlns='http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg'%20width='960'%20height='1200'%20viewBox='0%200%20960%201200'%3E%3C\/svg%3E\" alt=\"Indoor greenhouse cabinet with the doors open.\" class=\"wp-image-18353 perfmatters-lazy\" data-pin-media=\"https:\/\/www.ruralsprout.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/indoor-greenhouse-DIY-9025.jpg\" id=\"mv-trellis-img-8\" data-trellis-processed=\"1\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.ruralsprout.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/indoor-greenhouse-DIY-9025.jpg\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/www.ruralsprout.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/indoor-greenhouse-DIY-9025.jpg 960w, https:\/\/www.ruralsprout.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/indoor-greenhouse-DIY-9025-240x300.jpg 240w, https:\/\/www.ruralsprout.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/indoor-greenhouse-DIY-9025-768x960.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.ruralsprout.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/indoor-greenhouse-DIY-9025-720x900.jpg 720w, https:\/\/www.ruralsprout.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/indoor-greenhouse-DIY-9025-735x919.jpg 735w, https:\/\/www.ruralsprout.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/indoor-greenhouse-DIY-9025-268x335.jpg 268w, https:\/\/www.ruralsprout.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/indoor-greenhouse-DIY-9025-278x347.jpg 278w, https:\/\/www.ruralsprout.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/indoor-greenhouse-DIY-9025-416x520.jpg 416w, https:\/\/www.ruralsprout.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/indoor-greenhouse-DIY-9025-512x640.jpg 512w, https:\/\/www.ruralsprout.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/indoor-greenhouse-DIY-9025-614x768.jpg 614w, https:\/\/www.ruralsprout.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/indoor-greenhouse-DIY-9025-864x1080.jpg 864w, https:\/\/www.ruralsprout.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/indoor-greenhouse-DIY-9025-150x188.jpg 150w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 760px) calc(100vw - 96px), 720px\"><\/figure>\n<p>And lastly, we can\u2019t ignore the aesthetic value of a bright and thriving indoor greenhouse. This is by far my favorite benefit and the reason I chose to tackle this DIY project in the first place.<\/p>\n<p>With over 50 houseplants under my care, I\u2019m always looking for new and interesting ways to display them. This cabinet was specially designed for placement in low-light areas of my home where houseplants struggle to grow without extra lighting support. It fits seamlessly into my interior design and makes the plants the highlight of the room in the process.<\/p>\n<p>To maximize this benefit, make sure you choose a good-looking, high-quality cabinet that fits with the rest of your interior. There are certainly cheaper options that don\u2019t require much adjusting, but they may not look as good as a DIY cabinet perfectly tailored to the spot it\u2019s in.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-how-to-build-a-diy-indoor-greenhouse\">How To Build A DIY Indoor Greenhouse<\/h2>\n<p>Now that you\u2019re convinced, it\u2019s time to get into the details of this DIY project. <\/p>\n<p>Keep in mind, there are hundreds of ways to put an indoor greenhouse together. This is how I built mine, with a focus on houseplant growth and design, but you may find other options that work better for you based on your needs and what you want to grow.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-step-1-find-a-cabinet\">Step 1: Find a cabinet<\/h3>\n<p>The first task was to find a cabinet to turn into the greenhouse. There are a number of ready-made indoor greenhouse options available to buy online, but I wanted one that would fit with the rest of my furniture.<\/p>\n<p>Collected over many years, my house is filled with vintage second-hand furniture (mostly solid wood) so that is the goal I started with. Conveniently, thrifted furniture is also the cheaper option if you can find what you\u2019re looking for.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1200\" height=\"1200\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml,%3Csvg%20xmlns='http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg'%20width='1200'%20height='1200'%20viewBox='0%200%201200%201200'%3E%3C\/svg%3E\" alt=\"Old empty curio cabinet with glass doors and sides.\" class=\"wp-image-18354 perfmatters-lazy\" data-pin-media=\"https:\/\/www.ruralsprout.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/indoor-greenhouse-DIY-8867.jpg\" id=\"mv-trellis-img-9\" data-trellis-processed=\"1\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.ruralsprout.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/indoor-greenhouse-DIY-8867-1200x1200.jpg\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/www.ruralsprout.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/indoor-greenhouse-DIY-8867.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/www.ruralsprout.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/indoor-greenhouse-DIY-8867-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.ruralsprout.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/indoor-greenhouse-DIY-8867-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/www.ruralsprout.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/indoor-greenhouse-DIY-8867-768x768.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.ruralsprout.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/indoor-greenhouse-DIY-8867-720x720.jpg 720w, https:\/\/www.ruralsprout.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/indoor-greenhouse-DIY-8867-480x480.jpg 480w, https:\/\/www.ruralsprout.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/indoor-greenhouse-DIY-8867-320x320.jpg 320w, https:\/\/www.ruralsprout.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/indoor-greenhouse-DIY-8867-200x200.jpg 200w, https:\/\/www.ruralsprout.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/indoor-greenhouse-DIY-8867-735x735.jpg 735w, https:\/\/www.ruralsprout.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/indoor-greenhouse-DIY-8867-335x335.jpg 335w, https:\/\/www.ruralsprout.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/indoor-greenhouse-DIY-8867-347x347.jpg 347w, https:\/\/www.ruralsprout.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/indoor-greenhouse-DIY-8867-520x520.jpg 520w, https:\/\/www.ruralsprout.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/indoor-greenhouse-DIY-8867-640x640.jpg 640w, https:\/\/www.ruralsprout.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/indoor-greenhouse-DIY-8867-960x960.jpg 960w, https:\/\/www.ruralsprout.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/indoor-greenhouse-DIY-8867-1080x1080.jpg 1080w, https:\/\/www.ruralsprout.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/indoor-greenhouse-DIY-8867-96x96.jpg 96w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 760px) calc(100vw - 96px), 720px\"><\/figure>\n<p>The only real requirement for an indoor greenhouse cabinet is a glass front. You don\u2019t want your plants locked away in a dark cabinet without being able to see them. Other than that, materials, colors and shapes are all up to your personal preference.<\/p>\n<p>After a week or two of scrolling online second-hand marketplaces, I found this solid wood cabinet listed on Facebook Marketplace for $45. I immediately knew it was the one and jumped at the listing.<\/p>\n<p>While the cabinet was a bargain, I unfortunately didn\u2019t save much money because I impulse bought a chair and side table set at the same time. Luckily they all match so I have a small excuse (this time).<\/p>\n<p>Thrifting is always recommended for a DIY project like this.

This will depend on which plants you want to grow and how decorative you want your cabinet to be.<\/p>\n<p>The first thing to look for is a grow light. If your cabinet is in a bright area and you\u2019re only filling it with low-light-friendly houseplants, you can skip this step. However, if you want to grow anything else, a grow light in a dark cabinet is essential. <\/p>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">This not only maintains strong growth in whatever plants you choose to grow, but also makes the cabinet look good too.<\/h3>\n<p>Opt for adjustable grow lights that can be suited to a range of plants. Houseplants won\u2019t need much extra light, but seedlings or veg certainly will, and succulents and cacti require even more. <\/p>\n<p>I used an old second-hand grow light from a neighbor. But, due to the heat it produces, I angled it away from my houseplants and will likely only keep it on for an hour or two per day.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Related Reading: LED Grow Lights: Everything You Need To Know<\/strong><\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"857\" height=\"1200\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml,%3Csvg%20xmlns='http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg'%20width='857'%20height='1200'%20viewBox='0%200%20857%201200'%3E%3C\/svg%3E\" alt=\"Overhead view of diffuser.\" class=\"wp-image-18356 perfmatters-lazy\" data-pin-media=\"https:\/\/www.ruralsprout.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/indoor-greenhouse-DIY-8947.jpg\" id=\"mv-trellis-img-11\" data-trellis-processed=\"1\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.ruralsprout.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/indoor-greenhouse-DIY-8947.jpg\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/www.ruralsprout.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/indoor-greenhouse-DIY-8947.jpg 857w, https:\/\/www.ruralsprout.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/indoor-greenhouse-DIY-8947-214x300.jpg 214w, https:\/\/www.ruralsprout.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/indoor-greenhouse-DIY-8947-768x1075.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.ruralsprout.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/indoor-greenhouse-DIY-8947-720x1008.jpg 720w, https:\/\/www.ruralsprout.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/indoor-greenhouse-DIY-8947-735x1029.jpg 735w, https:\/\/www.ruralsprout.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/indoor-greenhouse-DIY-8947-239x335.jpg 239w, https:\/\/www.ruralsprout.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/indoor-greenhouse-DIY-8947-248x347.jpg 248w, https:\/\/www.ruralsprout.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/indoor-greenhouse-DIY-8947-371x520.jpg 371w, https:\/\/www.ruralsprout.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/indoor-greenhouse-DIY-8947-457x640.jpg 457w, https:\/\/www.ruralsprout.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/indoor-greenhouse-DIY-8947-548x768.jpg 548w, https:\/\/www.ruralsprout.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/indoor-greenhouse-DIY-8947-686x960.jpg 686w, https:\/\/www.ruralsprout.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/indoor-greenhouse-DIY-8947-771x1080.jpg 771w, https:\/\/www.ruralsprout.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/indoor-greenhouse-DIY-8947-150x210.jpg 150w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 760px) calc(100vw - 96px), 720px\"><\/figure>\n<p>The next item on my shopping list was a humidifier.

One is shaped like a lightbulb, while the other has a wood finish matching the interior of the cabinet.

Even though it can be tedious, this step can help prevent the deterioration of your indoor greenhouse down the line.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-step-4-make-space-for-cables\">Step 4: Make space for cables<\/h3>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1200\" height=\"1200\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml,%3Csvg%20xmlns='http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg'%20width='1200'%20height='1200'%20viewBox='0%200%201200%201200'%3E%3C\/svg%3E\" alt=\"Drill bit against the wood, about to begin drilling.\" class=\"wp-image-18358 perfmatters-lazy\" data-pin-media=\"https:\/\/www.ruralsprout.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/indoor-greenhouse-DIY-8892.jpg\" id=\"mv-trellis-img-14\" data-trellis-processed=\"1\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.ruralsprout.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/indoor-greenhouse-DIY-8892-1200x1200.jpg\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/www.ruralsprout.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/indoor-greenhouse-DIY-8892.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/www.ruralsprout.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/indoor-greenhouse-DIY-8892-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.ruralsprout.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/indoor-greenhouse-DIY-8892-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/www.ruralsprout.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/indoor-greenhouse-DIY-8892-768x768.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.ruralsprout.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/indoor-greenhouse-DIY-8892-720x720.jpg 720w, https:\/\/www.ruralsprout.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/indoor-greenhouse-DIY-8892-480x480.jpg 480w, https:\/\/www.ruralsprout.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/indoor-greenhouse-DIY-8892-320x320.jpg 320w, https:\/\/www.ruralsprout.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/indoor-greenhouse-DIY-8892-200x200.jpg 200w, https:\/\/www.ruralsprout.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/indoor-greenhouse-DIY-8892-735x735.jpg 735w, https:\/\/www.ruralsprout.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/indoor-greenhouse-DIY-8892-335x335.jpg 335w, https:\/\/www.ruralsprout.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/indoor-greenhouse-DIY-8892-347x347.jpg 347w, https:\/\/www.ruralsprout.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/indoor-greenhouse-DIY-8892-520x520.jpg 520w, https:\/\/www.ruralsprout.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/indoor-greenhouse-DIY-8892-640x640.jpg 640w, https:\/\/www.ruralsprout.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/indoor-greenhouse-DIY-8892-960x960.jpg 960w, https:\/\/www.ruralsprout.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/indoor-greenhouse-DIY-8892-1080x1080.jpg 1080w, https:\/\/www.ruralsprout.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/indoor-greenhouse-DIY-8892-96x96.jpg 96w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 760px) calc(100vw - 96px), 720px\"><\/figure>\n<p>Grow lights and humidifiers, unless run on batteries, will likely need to be plugged in somewhere permanent in order to work.

What you choose at what time of year is completely up to you.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"857\" height=\"1200\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml,%3Csvg%20xmlns='http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg'%20width='857'%20height='1200'%20viewBox='0%200%20857%201200'%3E%3C\/svg%3E\" alt=\"Young woman adjusting grow light in cabinet.\" class=\"wp-image-18367 perfmatters-lazy\" data-pin-media=\"https:\/\/www.ruralsprout.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/indoor-greenhouse-DIY-8993.jpg\" id=\"mv-trellis-img-21\" data-trellis-processed=\"1\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.ruralsprout.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/indoor-greenhouse-DIY-8993.jpg\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/www.ruralsprout.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/indoor-greenhouse-DIY-8993.jpg 857w, https:\/\/www.ruralsprout.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/indoor-greenhouse-DIY-8993-214x300.jpg 214w, https:\/\/www.ruralsprout.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/indoor-greenhouse-DIY-8993-768x1075.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.ruralsprout.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/indoor-greenhouse-DIY-8993-720x1008.jpg 720w, https:\/\/www.ruralsprout.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/indoor-greenhouse-DIY-8993-735x1029.jpg 735w, https:\/\/www.ruralsprout.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/indoor-greenhouse-DIY-8993-239x335.jpg 239w, https:\/\/www.ruralsprout.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/indoor-greenhouse-DIY-8993-248x347.jpg 248w, https:\/\/www.ruralsprout.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/indoor-greenhouse-DIY-8993-371x520.jpg 371w, https:\/\/www.ruralsprout.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/indoor-greenhouse-DIY-8993-457x640.jpg 457w, https:\/\/www.ruralsprout.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/indoor-greenhouse-DIY-8993-548x768.jpg 548w, https:\/\/www.ruralsprout.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/indoor-greenhouse-DIY-8993-686x960.jpg 686w, https:\/\/www.ruralsprout.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/indoor-greenhouse-DIY-8993-771x1080.jpg 771w, https:\/\/www.ruralsprout.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/indoor-greenhouse-DIY-8993-150x210.jpg 150w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 760px) calc(100vw - 96px), 720px\"><\/figure>\n<p>Just a word of warning though if you do plan on moving plants often \u2013 make sure the change in conditions in their new home isn\u2019t too drastically different from what they were used to in the greenhouse. <\/p>\n<p>Sudden changes can stress plants and lead to several problems with growth.
