The Basics of Growing Food Indoors

Are you aware you can grow various herbs and vegetables indoors all year round?

Only one tall shelving unit supplies enough space to create a continuous harvest of delightful fresh options through the year, although it’ll never replace a bigger outside garden.

As with any endeavor that is new, it is wise to start small-a container of salad greens, maybe-and ensure it is something you love doing and need to pursue before making any larger purchases including shelving and grow lights.

Begin growing and you will learn which plants enjoy your house.
