This is actually a side note! The last few days I have been working on my new indoor vegetable garden! I've always been interested in plants! Back in San Francisco, I spent a lot of time with my siblings in the backyard where my dad grew fruit trees and orchids. I'd like to think the green thumb runs in the family!
Anyways, living in a small space in the city means the dreams of growing vegetables and flowers was difficult to imagine. I recently came across this company that sells variant vegetable and fruit seeds to create edible dwarf plants that do not require more than a square foot of space at home. After about three of days of germination, my squash blossom plant started to emerge from the coconut husk "soil" it was sitting in. If you are interested in growing your own vegetable garden at home I highly recommend this group! You can order your victory garden HERE!
I will keep you on the next phase of the process when my plants are ready to move into their "pots". The other fruits/vegetables I've planted are kale, strawberries, brocolli, and green beans. I started the green beans yesterday night, so I they are a bit behind in germination!
