Many of us live in places where the growing season starts late and ends early. This worsens the further north you go, and living in an urban area can make taking true advantage of your growing season almost impossible. But, what if there was a way to utilize your space effectively, and pay no mind whatsoever to what the weather was like outside, yet still have a functional garden producing a good yield? Indoor gardening makes this ideal a reality, and it really doesn't take much time or money to set up a high yield compact operation in your own home. The benefits are myriad, including an aesthetically pleasing home, stress reduction, and the cheapest organic food you can possibly get. With food and herbs that you grow yourself, you can rest assured that no pesticides or unwanted chemicals have been used. Moreover, you receive herbs and vegetables at the peak of their nutritional value. Nothing in a grocery store can possibly compare.
