Hello all! While I'm not new to fruiting plants, I've never owned them specifically for harvests, and I'm just now becoming interested. Does anyone have recommendations for plants that can survive indoors, in pots, and still produce decently sized harvests? I'm in FL so light, heat, and humidity are no problem. I currently have sweet peppers and cherry tomatoes, and am in the process of starting seeds for pineapple and blueberry (fingers crossed these blueberries don't die, I have horrible luck with them). I may move them outside eventually, but they will forever be in pots, as I'm not a fan of putting non-native plants in the ground even if they're not considered invasive in my area. Tips and tricks also welcome! TIA

    I found that radishes are pretty hardy, and they give fruit in 3-4 weeks after planting!

    Peach can fruit relatively quickly. Lemon also does well as a large indoor plant. You just prune them to keep size manageable. If you want to try native species and less commonly used fruits, you might try american pawpaw, mayapple, and passionfruit (just make sure you prepare them correctly; mayapple can be toxic if you eat the wrong part, and the wrong varieties of passion flower make bitter fruit)

      It’s about 3ish feet. I’ll have to get aggressive on cutting it back next year to get more lateral stemming
