I'm probably going to need to play around with this myself, but are there any good guides as to how to set it up? I'm probably gonna get trolled for this next bit, but whatever. Every guide I look at only goes over how to build the building, and nothing about planting, how it works, how often it restocks, etc..... What are good setups, what looks cool, rare things that are helpful to plant, etc..... This is the type of info I'm looking for, not stuff like this........... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yF0y1OfD5Jw

To plant you just need an ingredient in your inventory, then active the area of soil by hovering the pointer over it. The crop seems to restock fairly quick (outside in the garden anyway) but I've never actually measured it, sorry. I guess what you plant depends on your play style and whether you need the ingredients or just want it to look pretty. Experimenting is part of the fun

How do you get bee's and other bugs? And can you get moss on walls?

there are three house you can own. three green houses, three gardens. the green houses don't seem to be equal in spawning bees and moss.

Bees, butterflies, luna moths and torchbugs will spawn inside your greenhouse once you're active with the planters. At least thats what ive noticed. Im not totally sure on the moss though.

Ive noticed that the gardens inside and outside the house takes about 3-4 in game days to grow the items you planted.

The hanging moss should appear in the greenhouse after you have build everything in there. Unlike critters (bees, moths, etc.), it takes 10 days for it respawn. Additionally, since hanging moss is a type of flora, it also suffers from the infamous flora respawn bug, so once you harvest it once, it may not respawn correctly.

You can get bees and honeycomb by building an Apiary. Its one of the misc outside options I think.

I usually use the garden outside for my beneficial plants (mountain flowers, wheat, snowberries, jazzbay, tundra cotton, lavender) and use the inside greenhouse for all my poison herbs.

I believe when you first plant, it takes 2 days to harvest, but after that is will take 5 days to re-harvest. Different ingredients give different amounts, when you pick them. Some may give 3 of an ingredient when picked, others may give 5, just depends upon the type of ingredient.

The best way to choose what you want to plant is to see what kind of potions you want to make. If you just want for healing potions, I use blue mountain flowers & wheat. If you are going to want to make some blacksmithing potions, then you'll want to plant blisterwort + glowing mushroom. If you plan on making some fortify enchanting potions, then plant snowberries (will also need to collect the blue butterfly wings from butterflies that spawn in the greenhouse). For poisons, then plant : bleeding crown + imp stool -or- death bell. For restore magicka, then plant : creep cluster + red mountain flower. If you plan on making restore stamina, then plant : purple mountain flower + (histacarp , going to have to catch these fish, but if the house with a fish hatchery, that works good.)

As for looks, I think dragon's tongue looks really good, as do the scaly philia and glowing mushrooms. A lot of the 'what looks good' is subjective, and everyone will have their own opinion, plus it also depends if you're looking for flowering plants or just foliage.

Also, if you are on PC, you can get the Heljarchen Farm mod, that gives you a farm, where you have room to plant like 60 things. Is great for alchemy !

It really depends on what suits your Alchemist (I say alchemist since you picked the greenhouse and you like to mix potions/ poisons).

You can stock every type of mushroom/ fungus in 2 (and then some) of the three long platners. This looks totally awesome BTW. I will then plant flowers and wild grasses along the perimeter in the pots.

I'm a poisoner, so I'll keep my lingering damage health + paralysis potions in the garden next to the front door.

I highly recommend traveling to Blackreach and finding all Red Nirnroot. The Quest reward/ perk will make all your potion qualms just wash away...
