I don't have a garden, but wanted to grow my own veg. So as an experiment, I thought I'd try to grow indoors, in a tower block! Progress so far....
Chillies
I have just counted 10 chillies, which I may use to make homemade chillie tonight. The chillies in the window box have been a huge success.
Lettuce
I've been eating the lettuce for a while....although, it now tastes a bit bitter.
Tomatoes
I have lots of really tall plants, which have looked like they want to bear tomatoes for a long time now....but no such luck. I don't think I'll do tomatoes next year. They're a bit too big for the flat, and don't seem to cope indoors.
Aubergine
The aubergine flowered, but has been overshadowed by the runner beans. No aubergines yet and it's not looking too healthy. Maybe no aubergine next year.
Cucumbers
I have cucumbers! I didn't think the cucumbers would make it....the plants don't look healthy at all, but I do have cucumbers. Albeit, the smallest cucumbers in the world!
Runner beans
It's flowering at last, and has coped quite well with the limited space. I've had to unpick it from the curtains at times - it's been climbing anything it can. But on the whole it has coped well with wrapping itself around itself! And I'm now hopeful that I will get a crop.
