when the cold wind blows and the frost comes, you can still grow tasty veggies inside your own home! This series will show you how you can make yummy salads and more in dead winter. Let’s get started!
First you need to choose a veggie to grow. If you are just starting , it is best to start with lettuce. Lettuce is super versatile and hardy. And they do not need a huge container to grow in.
Once you have your plant that you are going to grow, get your container. If you are growing lettuce or leafy greens. You do not need a super big container, as even a large plastic party cup will do. If you still need to get a container, you can start your lettuce seeds in a egg carton or a empty toilet paper roll. I will soon do a pot on how to use those to start seeds.
To plant your seeds, gently sprinkle your lettuce seeds over the surface of the soil, and then very lightly mix them in with the top layer of soil. Keep in mind that lettuce seeds need light to germinate or sprout.
Once you have started you seeds, after a couple of weeks, transplant them into their main container. And start harvesting the bottom leaves of the lettuce plant. Enjoy!
