# I’ve had this mini ikea greenhouse for a while but have never kept…

I’ve had this mini ikea greenhouse for a while but have never kept any plants in it, what type of plants do you think would go good in here? I’m thinking about buying a mini humidifier too for it!  
Light - part sun, part shade (although I may get a grow light for it as well)

I’d get a hygrometer first, then you can see how much humidity it holds on its own. From there you can make plans for plants or additional humidity.
