Have you ever heard the term countertop gardening? No? Countertop gardening is a new innovative approach to outdoor gardening. All you need is water, seeds, and a source of sunlight. If you aren’t able to find sunlight, you can purchase an artificial sunlight source. Countertop gardening can be useful for those who live in apartments with limited space or even beginners who are just getting their feet wet in the world of gardening. Here are some tips you can utilize before creating your indoor garden!
