What kind of plants and what sort of setup? (Not asking for anything doxable, just an idea of what you could be working with in the new place.)

Thereโ€™s a lot of creative ways to have plants, even ones that are just indoor plants. There are also small hydroponic indoor garden kits that could fit on a bench top or windowsill for herbs, bonsai, or air plants.

(Iโ€™m so sorry, Iโ€™m not good with emotional support and tend to be a fixer but I understand if this is not helpful or wanted)

I can probably take most of my indoor plants over, there's a decent south-facing window ledge. Bedroom is west facing (ugh) without a ledge. The outdoor ones are gonna have to go as they're not suitable indoors esp without so much light

This is a really small apartment so there won't be much bench top space. It's alright tbh, I've been neglecting my plants the last few months due to exhaustion and I won't have that much time over the next few months either. I'll head to a friend's place to garden if I need a green fix

Ah yeah that could be challenging.
