Living Simply… Parenting by Instinct

My Garden

I am experimenting with growing indoor vegetables and some fruits. So far I’m doing great. I have tomatoes plants, pepper plants, peas, beans, eggplant, onions, strawberries, blueberries, and tons of cucumber plants. This year is experiment year, so I snapped up all the seeds I could get my hands on and collected up containers. This is the year of "why not?". Thats what I say whenever Nic asks why I’m trying to grow ____ : "Why not?"

I’m so excited. I’ve never grown things before and everything is doing very well. I’m particularly pleased with my pepper plants and my blueberry (its only a little wee sprout but still; everyone said I’d never get it to grow). 

I even went online and bought a book from ebay for an exorbitant amount of money b/c books about indoor veggie growing seem to be very few and far between but its a pretty good book considering its age (almost 20 yrs). But really how much can change plant wise in that time; if anything there should be more hybrids that can weather container growing than when it was published. Although, the authour claims you can grow melons in containers inside… I’ll have to try that one out when I get some room on my plant table; its full to the brim right now.
