Question 1

What is the minimum space needed to start growing?

Accepted Answer

You can start with as little as 0.25 m² — a 50×50 cm balcony corner is enough for herbs or small leafy greens. Container growing and vertical systems let you maximise yield in tight spaces.

Question 2

Which crops grow well in low sunlight?

Accepted Answer

Leafy greens like lettuce, spinach, methi, and coriander thrive with just 3–4 hours of direct sun. They are ideal for shaded balconies, north-facing terraces, or indoor setups with a basic grow light.

Question 3

What growing method is best for beginners?

Accepted Answer

Container gardening with cocopeat mix is the most forgiving method for beginners — no complex plumbing, easy watering, and readily available supplies. Kratky hydroponics is a close second for those wanting to go soilless without a pump.
