Do you have no garden space but enjoy growing seeds? Tips for indoor growing


If you enjoy gardening, but you are lacking one of the main necessities, a garden, all is not lost. Even though Seeds By Post  (http://www.seedsbypost.co.uk) the name gardening suggests you need one you can grow your own seeds indoors successfully.

In fact, now, it is arguably easier to grow your own seeds indoors. Follow these few simple steps here and you will find that growing seeds inside is just as rewarding.

Choose the right seeds

It’s important that you choose the right seeds to use, especially if you are new to indoor growing. One of the downsides of growing your own seeds inside is that you will not be able to plant all seeds successfully. This is why you need to pick vegetables that you know can be grown indoors. Start with herbs like; basil, chives and parsley. They need the least management so are the easiest to start with.

Get the right conditions

Having the right conditions is the most important factor if you are growing indoors. Most plants require a lot more light than a kitchen windowsill can offer. However, if it is your only choice, it is usually the best place to set up. If you want to take planting seriously, you can use high-intensity lights inches above the soil for twelve hours a day making sure that you raise the lights up as the plants grow.

You also need to make sure you keep the plants or herbs moist. Use a spray bottle to ensure you do not over water them. Alternatively, you can fill a tray underneath the plant with water so that the mix wicks up the moisture from below.

Buy reputable, buy right

If you want to make sure you get it right the first time it’s important that you buy seeds from a reputable supplier. Seeds By Post offer Suttons Seeds, Mr Fothergills Seeds and        among others so you can be sure that you are buying quality seeds, which will give you the best chance of being successful.

If you decide to give indoor growing a go, make sure you take the time to research how to do it right. While it may seem simple, you will soon find that if you do not put in ample research, you’ll end up having to start again.
