If a Tree Grew in Brooklyn...
can a vegetable grow in a Manhattan apartment? Turns out, yes. Being that I live in a NYC apartment with no yard or balcony, my dream of having a garden has been unsurprisingly put on hold. But recently, I came across this, which really piqued my interest - as it is in fact possible to grow vegetables indoors (and no, a greenhouse is not necessary). While this of course isn't groundbreaking or brand new information, and it's probably safe to assume that indoor conditions would have to be as ideal as can be to grow something worth eating, it sounds much more do-able than I would have thought. With space and light still being probably the biggest factors (and for me, there's also the matter of our cat!), I'm not sure I'd be able to do it just yet - am definitely going to look into it further. And even if not now, it's at least good to know that you ostensibly don't have to wait until you have sufficient outdoor space to get your grow on - though, of course, that will be the ultimate!
