That's the basis of hydroponics. The soil you use will be important even more so. I can't speak for growing plants inside but I have several seasons of growing plants landscaping.

2020-05-15 17:02:01 UTC  

Ive started lots of plants inddors, but never kepts more then some herbs or house plants inside.

2020-05-15 17:02:49 UTC  

I know if you have the room for a light set up its possible. Ive seen 10foot tomato plants grown inside plant stores here in the states. No idea how many lights where on it though

2020-05-15 17:03:55 UTC  

And if space is an issue, id stay with higher end plants, and not potatoes and carrots...

2020-05-15 22:08:18 UTC  

@kalebdenden you mean by a window?

2020-05-15 22:29:55 UTC  

I have grown a grapevine indoors, using red and blue LED grow lights. It never produced fruit (because it didn't go dormant) and it won't live for more than a few years, but it grew about 30 feet.

2020-05-15 22:39:18 UTC  

No just a tote

2020-05-15 22:52:46 UTC  

If you have a tote you can put a grow light in it and at least grow lettuce or spinach

2020-05-15 23:11:21 UTC  

I might have one around. Aren't grow lights expensive as hell though?

2020-05-15 23:11:37 UTC  

I got my LED grow lights for like $5 each

2020-05-15 23:11:53 UTC  

One of them broke right away, and I had to buy another (cheap import)

2020-05-15 23:12:32 UTC  

Like one $5 light per plant or how does that work?

2020-05-15 23:14:15 UTC  

Depends on how close the plants are. I'm looking on amazon now and they have both spotlight type bulbs (which is what I used) as well as a large square

2020-05-15 23:14:56 UTC  

Grow spotlight is like $16, and the big square is $36, but I'm sure some internet search magic can find better product/prices.

2020-05-15 23:18:40 UTC  

I seriously overestimated the price. I thought grow lights were $100-$300

2020-05-15 23:19:07 UTC  

Non-import commerical ones might be up there, but $50 looks like you could grow a good bit inside

2020-05-15 23:19:33 UTC  
2020-05-15 23:20:56 UTC  

2000 watt 4ftxft full spectrum grow light is $310, for commericial hydroponic

2020-05-15 23:21:34 UTC  

+1 for lettuce. It has been stupid easy to grow

2020-05-15 23:22:08 UTC  

In my climate it grows like a weed

2020-05-15 23:22:16 UTC  

Specifically romaine lettuce

Apple trees survived the late snows and frosts

2020-05-17 19:11:03 UTC  

My dad mutilated my apple tree last year, it's still alive, but I hope it can finally bear fruit after 13 years

2020-05-17 19:11:59 UTC  

I still can't believe he seriously lopped off every single branch that was flowering

2020-05-17 19:12:28 UTC  

And that's why I took over all the food bearing plants this year

2020-05-17 20:39:31 UTC  

ye

2020-05-17 20:40:15 UTC  

@kalebdenden will any coffee grounds do?

2020-05-17 20:40:39 UTC  

For what

2020-05-17 20:41:00 UTC  

Nice potatoes btw @Thatotherguy

2020-05-17 20:53:42 UTC  

Ye

2020-05-17 20:53:54 UTC  

@kalebdenden the bluberry thing

2020-05-17 21:05:55 UTC  

Oh yeah any coffee grounds

2020-05-17 21:06:11 UTC  

When you water them into the soil it will add acidity

2020-05-17 23:02:04 UTC  

Do they have to be mixed into a liquid?

2020-05-18 00:20:43 UTC  

No

2020-05-18 00:20:49 UTC  

Put it on like mulch

2020-05-18 01:51:19 UTC  

In October I'm gonna make some hot sauce, and I'm actually planning on making a company for it.

2020-05-18 01:52:04 UTC  

It's gonna be called Hand Kind Hot Sauce

2020-05-18 01:53:15 UTC  

I'm working on a recipe right now for a sticky blueberry sauce called "Blue Glue" as a reference to the b ga o

2020-05-18 15:19:29 UTC  

Is this fine
