Nowadays, it is actually difficult to say which of these two things is more important—free food or naturally clean food. In our times, both are important.
I spoke extensively about growing food at home in 2020: Your Yoga. Home Farming Is Easy
Essentially, I gave you both my practices and my articles for:
And that is wonderful
Especially the fact that you have, of course, been using all this for the benefit of your health for a long time. This means that your aging has slowed down significantly, and you now look younger than your age.
And now you happily look at your reflection in the mirror...
I will continue improving your life
As they say, a lot of water has flowed under the bridge since then. Some people did not particularly like hydroponics. There is still quite a lot of work involved.
It has its pros and cons.
Things happen more naturally in soil. And lamps cannot replace the real sun...
This leaves only small cups of soil as the growing method closest to nature.
And installing reflectors—to intensify the sunlight.
In essence, it looks like this:
You can easily change everything.
Following the principle: one is being planted, another is already growing, and in the third you are already harvesting.
All this can be arranged as shelving units. For example, two or three shelving units. But do not make them too narrow or numerous, so that they do not block the sunlight.
If you have two sunny windows in your apartment, that is even better. You will have twice as much produce.
Nowadays, apartment windows are large. The windowsills are wide.
So all of this is a big advantage.
I recommend buying square cups; as you understand, they hold more.
Thank God, soil is still free for now, so I am not joking when I say that all this is basically free.
But if someone is too lazy to dig up soil and go to places where cows have passed by to collect a few cow patties for fertilizer, shops are waiting for you.
You do not need many cups. They are essentially everlasting.
And in general, you can start with just, say, eight cups.
See how it works for you.
There is no need to rush into growing strawberries right away.
You can grow something genuinely practical that provides a feeling of fullness.
High-yield bean varieties, for example, as well as broad beans and peas...
Cucumbers are simply sacred
It makes sense to grow something that produces fruit for several months—even cucumbers, for example.
That is, you pick one today and eat it, then more are ready tomorrow, and so on.
Always fresh, just picked from the garden!
Moreover, all of this is constantly blooming for you—you always have spring right in your apartment. That is wonderful....
And here is the important point: you will have to watch at least a few videos on how to grow these plants.
There are many videos on YouTube.
Growing at a summer cottage and growing at home are different.
For example, cucumbers are pinched back so that they do not spread out... and so on.
Moreover, it is not a problem if you travel somewhere, even for months!
There are ways to deal with this too.
Look on YouTube.
There are all sorts of devices available.
You leave for a month and return to find that your harvest is already ripe. How wonderful, right?
In northern regions, there may be some problems during winter. You cannot increase the sunlight enough with a reflector alone. You will have to buy a couple of special grow lights for seedlings.
But that is only in winter. In fact, you can take a break in winter altogether. For at least seven or eight months, everything grows without an additional lamp.
Do not make the mistake of going to a store and buying just ANY seeds.
You need seeds specifically intended for growing by a window—in other words, varieties that produce a more abundant harvest.
And do not forget to water them periodically with a potassium permanganate solution, otherwise all sorts of little flies will soon become active.
And I hardly need to tell you that your own cucumbers cannot even be compared with the rubbish sold in stores.
Moreover, this kind of care and closeness—even to a small garden—extends your life, calms your nerves, and makes you kinder....

Essentially, I gave you both my practices and my articles for:
- Drinking clean water, similar to water found in nature
- Breathing clean air even while living in a city
- Eating clean food by growing it at home

This leaves only small cups of soil as the growing method closest to nature.
And installing reflectors—to intensify the sunlight.
In essence, it looks like this:
- A windowsill on the sunny side.
- A cup filled with ordinary natural soil (fertilized).
- Mirrored reflectors, preferably a real mirror.

Cucumbers need to be picked frequently
Мой гибискус Карнавал шепчет, что скоро даст первый бутон и устроит цветочный бал.
Огурцу уже отправлено приглашение!🪷🪷🪷
с момента полных всходов. Это же очень быстро! Листочки мы увидели, подумать только, всего лишь через месяца полтора можно будет уже есть свои 
чери выписала. В общем, тоже в эксперименте!
Впервые. Настроилась на урожай.
