Yep, I just view it now too.  Very inspiring!   I would love to do the pineapple, strawberries, raspberries, tomato plants, peppers, etc.    Growing the corn is super cool too but can you imagine the big corn stalks inside the house? 😂

I used to grow corn in a bucket in my dorm room at college, just a couple of stalks.  But most corn, and probably lots of other vegetables now are hybridized. Companies own the patents for the hybrids. So farmers cannot save seeds; they need to buy new every year.  You will get whatever fruit or vegetable you planted, but it may not be the same variety.  Still edible though.

So cool you were able to grow corn inside a bucket in your dorm room! 😂  Did it need a lot of sunshine?

I tried to save a Mandeville plant one year … brought it inside before frost and placed near a window but the winters are long in my area (6 months) and lacks the sunshine and the plant died.😞   So if I was to do these veggies inside … I wonder if I have to invest in a sun lamp too?

I like the corn idea as I have not tried that yet but I did try to start garlic as shown below and it is awesome. I will be putting them in the ground this week (before May 5 :wacko: )
