GardenHacker:
not your typical seedy site...

Indoor Gardening and Gardenhacker takes a tip from his site

Taking some of the information I've gleaned and am putting it to use:

Eight cups of "Vitiamin Greens" from Johnny's Select Seeds. From an instructables link reported earlier here. We'll see how it progresses.
Also there's a great site on indoor gardening on the oldhouseweb.com, which goes into basic details on what you need, including: "... The containers used for indoor gardening must provide drainage and adequate room. Follow the planting directions in seed catalogs or on seed packets to calculate the number of plants per container. Recommended containers vary, providing a number of aesthetically pleasing options. Some suggestions are: pots, wastebaskets, buckets, aquariums, waterproof bushel baskets, crates with black plastic with a few holes for drainage, a hollowed-out log for flowers, and washtubs. One unusual example of an indoor container is a 24-inch washtub with holes punched in the bottom for drainage. This container will hold: 25 bean, beet, spinach, leaf lettuce, or turnip plants, 18 endive or Swiss chard plants, 50 dwarf carrots, radishes, or bunching onions, 12-18 small to medium size annual flowers, and one cucumber, tomato, or squash. ..." Mmmm right up my alley! Stay tuned for progress on the passive hydroponic eight cup salad, and link up to the oldhouseweb.com, too!
