Here is my Fig growing set up. They are on turntables so I can turn them every couple of days.

Just a large glass door facing north and the sun streaming in. This is my room where I work at night or in winter.

They will grow like mad for the next 8 or 9 weeks until end of June. They will stay inside till late October.
