Growing vegetables indoors can bring amazing edible results. Veggies like spinach, kale, and lettuce are easy to grow, even with minimal sunlight. Time-saving, nutrient-rich, and flavorful, they can add zest to everyday meals.
Pick planters that allow for drainage and fill them with the right soil mix – though common garden soil can work too. Place them in an area with plenty of light, or use plant-growing lights if needed.
Water frequently but not excessively, lightly feeding the plants every four weeks with diluted liquid fertilizer during their growth cycle. Rotate potting containers regularly, so all sides get adequate light exposure.
Harvesting goes quickly since leaves don’t need cutting back; a pair of scissors works just fine for individual plucking leaves as desired. Keep up the supply by replanting after harvest; it never hurts to go heavier on the seed sowing in case some don’t sprout or insects snack away at plants.
There is no need to wait for warm months outdoors before enjoying your veggies – start now!
