Year-Round Indoor Salad Gardening: How to Grow Nutrient-Dense Soil-Sprouted Greens in Less Than 10 Days (Peter Burke)

Year-Round Indoor Salad Gardening offers good news: with nothing more than a cupboard and a windowsill, you can grow all the fresh salad greens you need for the winter months (or throughout the entire year) with no lights, no pumps, and no greenhouse.

Growing “Soil Sprouts”―Burke’s own descriptive term for sprouted seeds grown in soil as opposed to in jars―employs a method that encourages a long stem without expansive roots, and provides delicious salad greens in just seven to ten days. Indeed, of all the ways to grow immature greens, this is the easiest and most productive technique. This book is a revolutionary and inviting guide for both first-time and experienced gardeners in rural or urban environments. All you need is a windowsill or two.

Year-Round Indoor Salad Gardening offers detailed step-by-step instructions to mastering this method, tools and accessories to have on hand, seeds and greens varieties, soil and compost, trays and planters, shelving, harvest and storage, recipes, scaling up to serve local markets, and much more.
