Accidently placed this topic in wrong forum and am reposting from there. Already asked mods to delete that one.

For whatever reason, it seems my screened balcony for our apartment is not good for bonsai. I'm thinking it just doesn't get enough sunlight. I have always thought it got at least four hours of morning sun, but now I'm thinking more like two, maybe two and a half hours. After the two hours an oak tree blocks the sunlight and then the sunlight gets blocked by the roof. None of our windows gets good sunlight either.

So, I was looking for something I can do indoors. One species that keeps popping up in searches is portulacaria afra.

Is this a good species for indoor keeping with LED grow lights?

What I was thinking about getting something from Lowes and creating something from what I get.

Something like this: https://www.lowes.com/pd/2-5-Quart-...k146EQtxLhhKwTSyBQUaAubiEALw_wcB&gclsrc=aw.ds
