Do you have a farmer’s spirit, but a city-dweller’s acreage… er, square footage? Something as simple as choosing the right fruits and veggies can make a massive difference in how much you can produce.

Even if an apartment or a duplex, you can still grow enough delicious fruit and vegetables to offset a significant chunk of (if not most of) your produce budget.

There are actually many ways for you to develop a robust garden filled with food. For example, you can turn your balcony or patio into a container garden that’s filled with goodies.

Some plants can also be grown indoors. All it takes is a little ingenuity and know-how to get started.

1. Spinach

Does your balcony have a lot of shade? Or are you trying to grow plants from inside your apartment? Spinach can be a good option because it doesn’t require a lot of direct sunlight. This nutritious leafy green vegetable is also very easy to grow!

Simply plant your seeds, keep the spinach in a cooler climate, water occasionally and be prepared to harvest the results in four to six weeks. Spinach plants are relatively small and don’t require a lot of space, so almost everyone should have enough room to grow at least one of them at home.

Good and healthy home grown spinach would make Popeye proud.

This was okay but I thought they would mention varieties of sprouts. Quick, easy, soilless, etc.

I'm always looking for reliable info on sprouting. I have a decent sprouter so I can liven up my salads and sandwiches with fresh sprouts but I keep thinking there must be a better model out there, bigger, easier to take care of.
