How To Grow Herbs & Vegetables Indoors Without A Grow Light. How To Grow On A Window Ledge.

Which lettuce varieties did you say..that was most interesting part but didnt hear

I will take as many windowsill growing vids as you want to make. I appreciate you pointing out why my germination may have been awful. My miners lettuce is taking off but everything else has been resistant.

Watched it all …. What plants ??????))))))))

I would like to learn more from you about growing indoor with lights. I currently grow indoor and I am interested in knowing about the timing of switching from veg to bloom, what plants would need this and the effects of switching from 18 hours of light down to 12 hours of light if I have plants that dont need the switch to produce in the same tent. Thanks for the awesome info, never dull.

I was searching for this topic and voila! there you are with a video covering it exactly 💯😘

Definitely interested in indoor food gardening!

I live in the Northwoods of the US, so I would love more videos like these! Thanks😊 I’m not on instagram, though.

I started my tomatoes on a bay window last year best tomato grow year ever all my neighbors were mad at me they grew nothing

I love these! Thanks!

Thanks for this video. You just got rid of SO much trial and error on my end. Thank you so much!

I grew romaine on my balcony last summer and the balcony had a roof and southern exposure. I’m going to do it again cause it’s easy to water there and I can stay out of the blasting sunlight! And this year I WILL recognize when it is starting to bolt! (Or I will do lose leaf)

Should the bottle be covered so the light doesn’t cause algae growth? Also change water or top up and one more lol, oxygen needs? 🙏🏼

Wonderful!! Would love to hear how to have successful sprouts- what temperature do we need? Mine tend to get moldy before I can use them. Also, what is the soil amendment to add to potting soil to grow indoors? Can I use one of the spinning towers with soil indoors if near a southern window? We are 30 miles from the BC Canada border- really appreciate your channel!

Thank you for all you contribute to the gardening community. I intend on starting indoor gardening but I'm still undevided whether to go hydroponic or Soil. I have a large unused space in the basement and I can setup shelving system with fluorescent tube lights. My priority in to grow fresh salad greens and potentially something like a baby book Choy.

Never knew it was called the cracky method. Did I hear that right? Learn something new every day! I'll go with small soil pots. I'll have to get creative, both with window ledge and wire shelving with grow lights, because my male cat is a climber and a plant eater. It'll take heavy duty infrastructure to do indoor gardening with him around. Maybe prison bars on the windows, and a chain link dog run cage (with top) for the shelving. He keeps me on my toes. My sweet little Luna is happy just to watch me. I appreciate you naming the plants that can grow on ledges. Thanks Ashley!

I started an indoor garden of parsley, basil, carrots, and oregano. I just have a basic LED shop-light. It sure is bright though. So far things are looking okay but I am unsure if the LED light is adequate.

I have a question..!..My neighbor has some Jerusalem artichokes her son gave her...and wa ts to give me some...in Quebec our soil is half frozen...Can we still plant them now..or wait until spring...if in spring, can they keep well in fridge in a brown paper bag...or outside fridge in a brown paper bag in a cool room...!! Thanks!!😁

Best of health, you are awesome, love the informative and science-based topics!

I love it; kratky rocks!

Yes, please do more videos about indoor gardening. I want to start an indoor garden to keep growing over the long winter.

Indoor gardening would be wicked, specifically for me. Indoor gardening zone 3 with limited space would be ideal lol

I've taken the plastic containers I had left over from buying cookies at my grocery store deli, cut the tops off and placed plants in solo cups in those on a window ledge. By cutting drainage slits in the cups and I could then water the plants though subirrigation. I just had to refill it every few days to a week.

I managed to grow garlic this way, but living in Florida I was unable to get it to bulb. I still want to revisit trying to get garlic bulbs this way using a different type of garlic.

Basel and Pepermint grow nice on my window, I have a 3 year old pepermint plant in my window I trim it often and repot once a year. I use a rectangle pot 2.5 gallons the large amount of dirt helps the plant to not dry out if I forget to water it, my plants in small pots often die from lack of moisture. try over winter your pepper plants on window sill, dig up mature plants in fall repot with new dirt aggressivly trim branches and remove all big leaves treat the stick plant for pests and put in the window sill and replant outdoors in spring after last frost, beware of pests so trim lots and treat with neem oil / soap mix when bring them indoors as fall season
is ending. you must treat for pests even if no signs are there, bringing pests indoors is a disaster, be proactive and if you find pests immediatly quarentine or destroy the plant to save all the other plants no mercy,

I NEED more indoor gardening videos please!

Oh yeah! I forgot to buy sprout seed mix & jar tops. Had my eye on that for a while, happy to hear it's worth it. Thanks for the reminder, cheers!

Dose UV blocking glass window effect the plants grow versus none UV blocking?

For anybody out there with a desk lamp kicking around unused, you can pick up an LED grow light bulb at Canadian Tire starting at $5.49 it's their NOMA brand. That was my first grow light, still using it. It's not going to grow a tomato plant but will definitely benefit for this purpose.

I must have missed a segment about this 'cracky method' so I will have to search it up to understand what I'm doing.

Thanks, Ashley!

Edit: I see it's the 'Kratky Method', now my concern is about the nutrients to put in the water, which apparently is really important.

As an exception, I 'managed' to grow a tomatoplant inside during fall/winter. It was at 52.3 N latitude. Only available light was from a floor to ceiling window. Ok, i even did get some tomatoes (small yellow) after handpollinating, but i would not say it was worth it. (Used kratky).Managed to successfully grow lettuce inside as far north as 60 degrees latitude, on a window sil. (For reference: that's latitude of St Petersburg or Fort Smith NWT).
Herbs like Thyme easily overwinter/grow inside at 52.3 N

Enjoyed this video...now feeling adventurous.

Its possible to grow smaller peppers 🌶 and cilantro , mint, recao, basil, oregano, succulents etc in a southfacing window during winter. Then again my window panels are huge lol

Missing this premiere will teach me not to keep my phone under my pillow. Will watch later today.

Got lettuce growing and various sprouts. I just started tulsi basil. Love this content.

Congratulations on your new course. 💚 Yay. Thanks for the great videos

You are amazing! I was just wondering this.

I am very interested to learn more about indoor gardening 🫒

You’re always sooo in tune with my plant pondering. I am considering just this exact project. (I’m still on the ledge 😂) Thanks again!

I grew tomato's carrots,beetroot and peas indoors on my southfacing windowsill 👍🏻

Torturing plants. Is there any serious activists to protect plants rights and protecting them against exploitation and unnatural environments? This seems far from the genetically optimal Phenotype...

Well done! I appreciate learning from you.

I wondered about using those grow pods..great information. Thanks for the homework teacher😄

Like what you have to say. Thanks for sharing.

Who's ready?

Good evening from Australia
