Hydroponics

Every Vegetable I’ve Grown Inside My Apartment

how-to-grow-vegetables-indoors

Space inside my small NYC apartment is limited, but I’m always experimenting with what I can grow!

Here’s a running catalog of every herb, vegetable and salad green I’ve attempted to grow – all indoors, via hydroponic gardens.

Some successful, some not…

P.S. You can find a complete list of my indoor garden setup here.

The Indoor Gardening Guide

shershegrows-indoor-gardening-book-cover-page

I started an indoor garden in my NYC apartment 10 years ago and haven’t looked back.

Cyclosporiasis, e.coli, whatever outbreaks affect grocery produce hasn’t phased me because I grow my own clean, pesticide-free lettuce.

If you’re looking to start an indoor garden, I’ve written down my exact process for growing herbs, leafy greens and fruiting vegetables in my ebook:

The Indoor Gardening Guide

It’ll take you from black thumbs to flourishing indoor gardener!
