Try growing lettuce, spinach, and chard! Its super easy, looks really pretty and can be grown just about anywhere. These leafy little guys aren't really picky about soil, they only need a moderate amount of light and do great in containers. One packet of seeds well tended will give you a whole season of free greens. Also if you don't want to buy greens or seeds next season never pull from the center stalk, let it flower and seed. Another thought, if you wish to keep growing throughout the winter just keep a cycle of fresh babies planted and when it gets chilly move the operation from the porch to the indoors! Find a window sill that gets a little light and they'll be more than happy. Til next time,
Sandy
