Winter Is Coming! Grow Tomatoes, Peppers and More Indoors Now! 🌶️🍅

[@elisiaweimar4219]

I’m just about to put in my indoor garden… I have a shelf on my bakers rack I use I’m using dishwashing tubs from the dollar tree I have marbles between each set of two with holes in the top for drainage this year I’m doing a window box mix spring lettuce I did that last year and was able to harvest enough green leafy vegetables that I could have a salad every other day for about 65 days. It was a really good early blend of cut and come again … yellow and red tiny Tim tomatoes, which I can do one of each in those dishwasher tubs and yes, you are right. They are absolutely delicious. Green onions, but I’m actually just re-growing the bottoms because I work in a steakhouse and they don’t use the bottom part. I need a recipe for green onions, I could literally have hundreds of them growing in a month. I find putting those about a bunch to one 16 ounce Dixie cup works really really well but on that size you have to make sure you keep the watering up. I also intend upon planting some radish which is a 30 day crop and this year I am considering doing some of the pack choy or even densely planting bok choy as I have room on that shelf for three of the tubs…. I am so glad I found this video. I’ve done this for a few years. Let’s be honest the cost of fresh fruits and veg is through the roots and there’s nothing quite like home grown I didn’t know about the robin tomatoes. I’m gonna have to give those a look if you haven’t checked into the yellow tiny Tim I highly suggest it to me. They are very reminiscent of the mini pear yellow tomatoes from summer … give the tiny Timms a little bit of a chance I produced bumper crop last year indoors. I did find that they are about a 60 day to bloom crop and it seemed once I added some nutrients about day 30 they just took off. Don’t forget to tickle the blossoms so that they self pollinate. I am going to be a new subscriber.

Thanks so much! Those are fantastic tips! I'll have to stop by Dollar Tree to grab some tubs and marbles this week. I was needing some more! Regrowing green onions is a great idea. Have you tried drying them and making an onion powder? It looks weird (green) but tastes great! I'll have to look into the yellow micro tomatoes. It's really amazing how small but productive they are. Thanks so much for watching and subscribing. 😄 Kim

@@BackyardKYHomestead that’s what I did with last year’s overabundant bumper crop I didn’t even put in green onions this year because I had so many dehydrated Get the perks when you can off the job make it nice. That is the one thing I never have to worry about purchasing is green onion starts. I did find purple spring onions, and I may give those a try I watched tons of videos last night and I absolutely enjoyed the content

I grow indoors during the winter.

That's awesome! I'm very excited to get started on this project. I had success with a few simple things last so am really looking forward to expanding my indoor garden. Thanks for watching!

I also love those plug in traps! I’m in MN, zone 4b, so I really should try at least some leafy greens this winter.

[@BackyardKYHomestead]

It's well worth it. I noticed this morning that the Red Sails lettuce and Pok Choy have germinated, as well as one of the cucumbers. Happy dance! Thanks for watching! Kim

So glad I found your channel! You have me excited to grow some indoor food this winter! Have you tried growing pineapple?

[@BackyardKYHomestead]

I haven't tried growing pineapple, but I've heard of doing that. I'll have to give that a try. Thanks so much for watching! Kim
