I have always wanted to plant different vegetables, like cucumbers, carrots, lettuce, potatoes, tomatoes, and onions - inside my apartment. The only problem is that I don't have a fire escape to put them on. do anyone have any ideas how I can do this?

put veggies seeds in pots and hang them in your windows or take the back off of a book shelf and push it in front of window and put flower pot on the shelf

The problem with growing vegatables inside is they will never receive the sunlight that is required and the room they need to grow,especially cucumbers.Carrots,lettuce,potatoes and onions grow underground.The only one that may work providing six hours or more of sunlight is tomatoes.

Get a towergarden, you can grow anything that grows above ground, lettuce cucumbers tomatoes, squash, herbs.... I keep mine outside during summer and inside with grow lights in the winter. I have all kinds of greens and herbs growing inside.

just in a pot by a window and just keep turning it once a week to get even sun light,and put taller veggies in the middle.

What direction do your windows face? Are they floor to ceiling? What kind of space do you have available? Regardless, you will almost certainly need supplemental light from a grow lamp. Fortunately, there are hundreds of indoor growing supply companies to provide advice, equipment, etc.

I called Burpee seeds about that. The only problem might be pollination. You will need a soft artist's brush for that. Light and room to grow . I have grown tomatoes and eggplant inside along with ginger, turmeric and lemongrass and rosemary in south facing windows. I am lucky, my windows are floor to ceiling and I have 13 of them.
