easiest food plant to grow in a greenhouse
Leafy greens like kale and spinach are among the healthiest foods around, rich in iron, folic acid, vitamin C and countless other important nutrients. They are also very easy to grow organically in a greenhouse, though you do need to pay attention to them as plants like spinach tend to go to seed faster in a greenhouse than outdoors. Make sure you harvest at the right time and you will have rich green leaves that are full of flavor.
Baby Carrots. Baby carrots are a good option for a greenhouse unless you are going to plant them in a container which is left in the greenhouse. I say that because baby carrots donât require as much depth to grow to maturity. If you want full grown carrots, then containers are probably your better option.
6. âSummerâ Crops. Tomatoes, peppers, eggplants and cucumbers might not be the crops you want to sell at the winter market, but you can at least extend their season by growing them in a greenhouse. You can also grow starts of each of these plants to sell at market in the spring. Grow It: Following the basic growing guidelines for the summer crops you wish to grow, start them in late winter then plant in early spring, or start the crops in mid-summer and plant in the late summer.
