Jack Wikle grew bonsai indoors for 30 years. He is the only person I know of to succeed so his information might be useful.

My indoor plant room (for tropicals in the winter) usually smells a little funny. Especially after fertilizing with fish emulsion lol. I wouldn’t want to live in there!

Just to confirm about the mold. One of my good friends rented his house to someone who didn’t heat it… don’t know how the renter did it. The upshot was the tenant left him with a big mold clean up… to the tune of $5K which he had to eat as insurance would cover it.

Ugh

Cold and Dark with humidity - bad mix...

All building envelope systems are designed to prevent exterior air temperatures and humidity from moving inside. When you introduce humidity (through watering plants, unexhausted steam and showering, leaks, etc) inside, it cant escape either. So as humidity builds up in between walls, it will condensate on cold surfaces (duct, pipes, conduit, mc wires, nailer plates) and then mold will grow.

Experts have spoken.
