Indoor Kitchen Gardening: Turn Your Home Into a Year-Round Vegetable Garden

This is a fantastic book for anyone who wants to grow food vegetation indoors. Ms. Millard's techniques are well-tested, and if you follow them, they work. She provides thorough advice for starting and growing many different types of food plants. The book is well laid out into clear sections for microgreens, sprouts, herbs, many larger vegetables including tomatoes, potatoes, carrots, and others. She tells you which varieties of which plants are most suited to indoor container gardening and why. Her gardening advice is sprinkled with well-placed humor throughout the book. I have had great success following her gardening techniques, and I am a classic "brown thumb" type of person. Highly recommend.

This is a great book! I am not a beginner of outdoor gardening, but I am of indoor gardening. This book covers all the topics I was questioning and more that I didnt even know to ask. The best part is that it is written with information you will actually use. It shows you to use what is around you already without buying a lot of equipment. Also, there are no instructions for growing starfruit and persimmons, this book does not waste space giving information on things the average home won't be growing. It is little but mighty and is written with some humor. A good read.

I won't know if I "love" it or just "like' it until the fall or winter, when I might actually have time to try some of the projects in this book. (Right now, I'm just trying to keep up with caring for my indoor plants and my outdoor gardens). But this book is very well written ("down to earth," if you'll excuse the pun) and the directions/explanations are clear and should be easy to follow. The author also has a good sense of humor and quite a knack for making the most out of inexpensive household items, seeds, and garden equipment. Especially given the cold climate where she lives, she's had impressive results raising a variety of micro-greens and other edibles all year round. Definitely worth the money.

This book had my name written all over it. People in small apartments will benefit providing the window isn't facing an adjoining wall. In that case, microgreens - cilantro, basil and parsley might be the answer. My parsley and basil are spindly after a month and a half. Cilantro are growing gangbuster. I started this in mid-March where are temps are unpredictable. The book covers everything from tomatoes to sprouts and herbs. This book got me off my procrastinating butt to attempt apartment gardening. Oh yeah, the book covers outdoor gardening.

This book is great. The authors are quirky and personable, and make all of the information very easy to learn. They have tried everything in the book a few different ways, and give you the details on which does better in what scenario. Very knowledgeable, informative and easy to understand with tons of pictures and step-by-step instructions. It also has a great amount of resources, and gives you a lot of "popular" foods to try with great descriptions of flavor in case you have never tried them.

I have read this book completely and still go back to it often. I have several marked pages that I refer to as needed in my countertop growing endeavors. Very easy to read and understand. It is definitely written to the average gardener and not the expert horticulturalist. It gives you a great basis to start your indoor garden. You will not be disappointed.

So much information if you are looking to grow small indoor gardens. Lots of material on microgreens and similar plants.

My kids and I love this book. In Texas it is way to hot, for me, to grow food out doors. We have a thriving xeriscape garden, but want fresh veggies to grow and eat. I heard the author on NPR and was amazed how fun and simple it could be to use our sunny indoor spaces and recycled containers to grow food. I ran to the library and read the book cover to cover - a fun and easy read. Then we ordered it on Amazon. You can feel the author's enthusiasm and humor in the text. The photos show the stages of prepping, planting and care beautifully. The possibilities are endless, but the author suggests making a simple plan to start. You could get overly ambitious seeing all the gorgeous photos of indoor veggies, sprouts,mushrooms etc. We are starting with microgreens and kale pots in three locations in our house. We are excited to our see first shoots in a few days. My kids are actually looking forward to tasting the greens (a first!). I think a new or seasoned gardener would love this book.

Excellent guidebook with a light readable touch. Prompt delivery in the described condition. Would happily buy from this seller again.

Very good book for getting your indoor garden started. Her writing is a pleasure, almost don't know you're learning!

I have read through this book in 3 days and already have a lot of ideas. I have started some projects already and can’t wait to see the results. I found the book very informative. Highly recommended.

I really enjoyed this book. It was a great way to get started on growing veggies indoors especially if you have never done it before.

Great book. Lots of useful info and inspiration. Could do with a bit more detail in some sections though. Not everything is practical in your typical English house either - from the photos of her set up, the author must live in a mansion! Still, it's let me set up a couple of little veg-growing areas in my house. Getting fresh salad from my indoor garden every day is great.
