Indoor Edible Gardens

You don't need a big back yard to grow vegetables—even apartment-dwellers can have an edible garden. If you have a window that lets in at least 6–8 hours of sunlight, you can grow lettuce, carrots, and other vegetables in containers. With a special grow light, you can even grow tomatoes and strawberries.
