The blazing poinsettia, now past its prime as a living room showpiece, should be brought back to the greenhouse and stored under the bench until spring. These are usually brought into the greenhouse in late fall from the shaded cold frame where they have spent the summer.

A weed specialty in my greenhouse is a plant described as a choice exotic, Chamaeranthemum Gaudichandi. Seed is scattered throughout the greenhouse, a good greenhouse is both part of and a supplement to your landscape. Solar greenhouses are insulated to collect and store energy from the sun for use at night and during cloudy weather. As a result, greenhouse production in these areas will likely require the use of supplementary light and/or heat. This type of greenhouse system is often referred to as an active system. Greenhouses can be attached to a building house, shed, barn or freestanding. Most commercial greenhouses are freestanding. For an attached greenhouse, the south side of a building will be the sunniest all year. Another factor to consider in deciding where to locate a greenhouse is wind, especially one that is freestanding. Some experts suggest that any greenhouse from simple hoop structures to glass conservatories which grow plants in the soil can produce vegetables without artificial heat. To achieve this, all you need is to do is add a second protective layer of translucent material inside the greenhouse. So a completely sealed greenhouse is not ideal. Plants that should be keep in your greenhouse. Some experts suggest that any greenhouse from simple hoop structures to glass conservatories which grow plants in the soil can produce vegetables without artificial heat.

Warm weather crops like melons, peppers, eggplants, and tomatoes can be started early in the greenhouse for later transplanting outside or can be grown inside the greenhouse all the way to harvest. For winter growth in the greenhouse look for varieties of plants grown in the South which are varieties adapted to short-day culture. Other possibilities for greenhouse growing include herbs, specialty or delicate plants such as orchids, some types of mushrooms, bedding plants, bulbs, potted flowers and, of course, cut flowers. Whether you plant cold tolerant or heat loving plants, timing is key in greenhouse growing. Diseases and pests can enter the greenhouse via insects, in soil, on plants, and on seeds so careful handling and monitoring can go a long way to prevent disease and pest infestation. Grow boxes simplify the whole process of hydroponic gardening by providing an ideal environment for your plants. Your choice of profit-making plants may be dictated somewhat by your indoor gardening experience and the time you have spent as a hobby gardener or collector.

You don’t have to live in the country to better connect to the seasons by growing your own food. Vegetable gardening with the seasons empowers you to get in tune with nature. Become involved in the growing cycle and increase your awareness of the year’s natural turn. You can change your approach to food by growing a home vegetable garden, even on a small scale. While you probably won’t supply all your own vegetables and fruit, you can certainly supplement your diet (and your budget) by growing some of your own fresh, organic produce.

Learn to work with nature as you follow earth’s cycles, tending your plants in the fresh air, sunshine and rain. Watch the natural growth patterns and cycles of your plants over the smooth succession of the seasons. Find yourself in a more meaningful, soulful connection to Nature, grateful for the food she is providing. Some simple ways to grow some of your own food while you get in tune with the seasons include:

Grow dwarf fruit trees in large containers on your deck or patio. Some fruit trees, figs for example, even prefer the crowded conditions of a container. Fruit trees are an exquisite way to connect with the turning of the year, through bud and blossom in Spring, leaf and fruit through Summer, harvest and colour change over Autumn, leaf fall and bareness over Winter then reawakening with the glory of Spring’s bud and blossom.
Large containers placed in frost-protected positions can also be used to grow greens through the cool and warm crop cycles. For example, you can grow bok choy and kale in Autumn, spinach and silverbeet over Winter, snowpeas and celery in Spring and lettuce and broccoli over Summer.
Tomatoes are an old favourite for producing excellent yields in small spaces, and are one of the most worthwhile fruits to grow at home. Plant from seed in late Winter, transplant seedlings in Spring and enjoy watching your tomatoes swell and ripen over Summer. Enhance your Summer evenings by biting into freshly picked tomatoes while you sit outside enjoying the lingering evening warmth on your deck. The juiciness and flavour of a freshly picked, home-grown tomato is unbeatable.
For something quite different, try a mushroom log inoculated with mushroom spawn placed in a damp, shady spot near your house. Shiitake mushrooms make an intriguing display as they puff out from the log into elegant cascades. Different kinds of mushrooms fruit in different weather conditions, triggered by the coolness or warmth of the season. Button mushrooms can be grown quite easily inside the house year round, and also provide an interesting spectacle as they burst forth from their compost.

So take the opportunity to tune into the seasons by working with nature to grow some of your own food. Your planet will thank you with delicious, healthy produce.

Many gardeners are beginning to switch to Hydroponics gardening for many different reasons. These types of gardens are small and can easily be grown inside and are perfect for most vegetables, especially the red tomato. Also the equipment required for Hydroponics gardening is not expensive and they are relatively easy to manage.

Hydroponics gardening is the growing of plants without soil, in other words, “dirtless gardening”. There are many methods of Hydroponics gardening, most of which work better than regular soil gardening because it is easier to give the plant exactly what it needs when it needs it. Plants will only receive what you give them; therefore you will be able to regulate the pH, nutrients, nutrient strength, water amount, and light amount. This makes it imperative that you research the kind of plants you will be growing so you know what they need to survive.

Hydroponics gardening is only as difficult as you make it. It can be complicated if computers with sensors are used to control water cycles, nutrients, and light for the plants. However, it can also be as simple as a hand watered bucket with a single plant. The normal home Hydroponics system is usually made up of a few basic things: a growing tray, light (natural or artificial), a reservoir, a water controlled pump for watering (or some type of watering equipment), and some form of air pump to give oxygen to the nutrients.

The growing medium used in Hydroponics gardening can be any number of things, such as Rockwool, perlite, coconut fiber, gravel, sand, vermiculite, or even air. You can get instructions from a gardening store or online or buy separate parts and build your own. There are also kits already assembled for sale in gardening supply stores.

There are certain micro-nutrients that are necessary for healthy plant growth including magnesium, sulfur, calcium, cobalt, boron, iron, copper, manganese, and zinc. These nutrients are absolutely essential to plants and if missing could cause the food to not be as healthy and in some cases even cause health problems for those who eat it. It is very important that you use a quality fertilizer when Hydroponics gardening.

Another important aspect of Hydroponics gardening that must be closely regulated is the pH balance. When the pH balance varies the plants will lose the ability to absorb nutrients that it needs. The ease with which the pH in Hydroponics gardening is tested and controlled give it a huge advantage over regular dirt gardening.

Even though there are hundreds of different variations, Wick, Water Culture, Ebb and Flow, Drip, N.F.T., and Aeroponic are the six most basic types of Hydroponics gardening systems. Hydroponics gardening is easy, affordable, and you can have fresh produce, flowers, herbs & spices all year long!
