Good morning. I must have tried to register a long time ago because I don't even remember doing so. I just received an e-mail that my account would be deleted if I didn't do an intro post, so I figured, what the heck, and here I am.
Anyway, about a year ago I decided I wanted to have greater control over what my family and I consumed. I set out to build a 90sqft grow room. The room was complete back in September, and that's when the fist plant went in. A cherry tomato plant, (which is still growing and producing by the way).
Some of the things I grow are:
Brussel Sprouts
Various Tomatoes
Various Peppers
Various Herbs
Cucumbers
Kale
Wide variety of lettuce
I do vertical growing on the lettuces so as to maximize the yield per sqft of floor space, (can currently grow 96 heads of lettuce in 10sqft).
I have found this venture to be a lot of hard work, but at the same time, very rewarding being that I get fresh food year round.
Below are a few pics.
