Hey there – good on you for starting your veggie garden.

It really depends what you want to plant as different things obviously harvest at different times.

Try these sites to help you out.

Http://www.gardenate.com/

http://www.yates.com.au/garden-guide/videos/growing-vegetables/

This second site will also help you out with ‘how’ to grow, not only ‘when’.

Another option is to check the back of seedling packets OR a good bet is whatever is at your local nursery now is what is in season.

Good luck & happy growing.

With a grow tent, you can enjoy the fun of gardening indoor even your home is not spacious. What’s more, a grow tent may be used in conjunction with a hydroponics system, which allows you to garden and grow plants without the use of soil. This sounds really amazing for those who live at the top of an apartment building and have nowhere to get rich soil to for encourage plants to thrive.

If you are planning to get a grow tent for indoor gardening, I suppose you would like to use it with the hydroponics system. In order to make the best use out of the grow tent, you should also get a few indoor gardening supplies to round out and complete your plant growing setup.

One of the most important hydroponics supplies is indoor grow light. The grow tents are usually square shaped and can be totally enclosed so the grow lights will take the place of sunlight most of the time. Use the indoor grow lights to mimic natural sunlight is good for your plants.

Since there is no soil for your plants to thrive, the plant food is another necessity. The plant food which is known as nutrient can be mixed into water to create a nutrient solution in hydroponic gardening. Another advantage of use the nutrient is that you can use different amounts of it to suit specific types of plants at certain stages of growth.

Using hydroponics has many advantages but there is still a drawback that: because the crown of the plant is always submerged in water, it gets rot easily. You can use nets or trays to prevent this from happening, and use pumps to change the water level so that the roots can take up the liquid food.

Im not sure what you mean by a mini greenhouse; something say 8ft x 8ft you can walk in? A cold frame on the ground? (i have both, in ohio)
it may be late to start tomatoes in minnesota, when they give a “75day” maturity on the packet, thats time from transplanting…typically one would start seed 6 to 8 weeks before transplanting…

With that caveat, i think an egg carton is too shallow to seed in, but you might get away with it if you transplant quickly after you get 2 true leafs…growing tomatoes in a pot takes at least 2 gallons, with 5 gallons size better; the roots of onion and herbs wouldnt compete, so id imagine you could grow a few alongside…if youre going to keep the pot in your greenhouse, it will grow faster than outside; and to keep the greenhouse warm in the fall use 5 gallon black water buckets to absorb daytime heat, and thus keep the greenhouse warmer at night

No, I’m not interested.

You could use small sections of a branch. If you know someone with a chain saw or skill saw it should be easy to do. The branch should be about 4 inches across and that would be big enough to burn in the names. Then burn the names in with a wood burning tool. I bought one at Walmart for $12. If you drilled a hole in the top you could put a piece of wire with a hook on top so you can stick it in the ground. You could use these year after year.

You can also use soda cans. Cut off the top and bottoms and flatten the middle. Now in the center over something that has give–like a 1/2 inch foam or a stack of paper napkins write the names with an old ball point pen. The soft metal will indent. Now go over the name with a permanent marker and your names will show in black. Bend a wire into a u shape or use plant staples. Wearing gloves so you don’t get cut and using a pliers bend the side cut part over the wire on each side and then flatten the can and you have a marker

I have the one from target, and it works very well. It’s a good mini fridge. I would recommend getting that one.
it is worth the money

I think that I would be able to survive by growing my own food, if I could do it properly. My meal(s) would consist only of fruits and vegetables, but that would be okay. I’d be a whole lot more healthier anyway.

Nahhh.
If thats what you like then, thats cool:)
