I too am growing some new kinds of plants this season. A very kind soul here on the site turned me on to a short seasoned tomato that I am looking forward to growing out.
They are started in some grow plugs under lights right now. I am in the process of building some raised beds to grow them in as we speak. I still need to get some more soil, but I think I can get it all done in time for our short season.
As long as I don't get too stoned, and get side tracked I should be good.....

With regular celery, we have had good luck growing it indoors, as well as out. It was very happy, and growing like gangbusters in an east facing window in our house. There it would only get direct light for 2 1/2 or 3 hours at most in the morning, but good indirect light the rest of the day.

Outdoors it grows well in wet, almost swampy soil. Indoors, it will let you know quickly if it gets too dry, but recovers well from an occasional oversight. We used commercial potting soil, and gave it light feedings once a season with some organic, squid based plant food (man it stinks, but the plants love it).

I love growing celery, I just bought 1oz of seeds from mvseeds.com (great site, but Im not affiliated, just love their
prices.. you CANT BEAT THEM)
1oz seeds is like 70,000 seeds lol and its just 6 clammers... 35+ clams and free shipping.
you can get 100+ varieties for easily like.. 140 tickets
Celery IS the most nitrogen demanding vegetable crop there is.
(secret weapon for aquaponic systems, MWUAHAHAHA(well not a secret because I dont like those when it comes
to good information... damn you hoarder bitches out there, you knwo who you are lol) )
Juthro's comments are spot on from my experience as well.
(ive had some nice mutant curly celery before, not sure how they happened, probably lack of water lol)
I notice veggies become sweeter when grown under filtered light.
Like lettuces, I believe celery would probably respond the same to a filter light source making
them a lil sweeter..
Juthro> thoughts on that? i never tried it yet, but noticed it with a few other crops aside from lettuces.

I think you are correct Il1, that has been my experience with celery at least. I know I had shared some seeds with my in-laws in Oregon, and their garden gets direct sun for most of the day (south facing hillside). The celery they grew was very much stronger in flavor, and bitter. It was overpowering.
I grew some of the seeds from the same packet in the house here, where it received defused light for most of our summer daylight hours, and it was some of the mildest, best celery I have ever grown.
Everything I've read about celery says it is a very heavy feeder, but I've never pushed the ferts on it. I have tried to stay organic, and give plenty of rich compost to work with in the soil, with an occasional blast of Bio-Marine from general hydroponics organic line. The plants stayed happy, as was I, with their results. But, I would like to experiment a little (maybe this season) and really push some ferts at some, and see how much I can get away with, and how they will respond.
Keep it growing :)
