In order to grow leafy greens / vegetables hydroponically indoor you need space with enough sunlight like the windowsill. Another option is to invest in hydroponic tent with special lights that costs a lot and require space.
So, whatcan be done if you don’t have enough space and you don’t want to spend a lot of money?
The solution is small hydroponic greenhouse that costs ~$20 and you can put outside or on your balcony. Below you can see the hydroponic greenhouse I’m using. it took me 5 min to build it and no tools needed. in this small greenhouse I”m growing 36 plants hydroponically:
Few points:
- If you are living in very cold area let’s say that the average temp is below 5 Celsius (41 Fahrenheit) greenhouse might not be a solution for you.
- If you are living in windy area – locate the greenhouse on the side that is most protected and if needed set the greenhouse to the wall so it will not move.
- On the summer you can replace the greenhouse nylon with shadow net and grow vegetables that suitable for the summer temperature in your area.
