"Knowledge always demands increase; it is like fire, which must first be kindled by some external agent, but will afterwards always propagate itself."
-Samuel Johnson

You are interested in doing some gardening. However, the climate that you live in prevents you from gardening as much as you would like. Thus, you would like to find a way that you can enjoy a gardening hobby, but at the same time have the benefit of being able to garden all year. Thus, what you would like to do is some indoor gardening.

Here's what Wikipedia has to say about the topic:
"Indoor gardening is concerned with the growing of houseplants within a residence or building, in a conservatory, or in a greenhouse. Indoor gardens are sometimes incorporated as part of air conditioning or heating systems."

About Indoor Gardening

Indoor gardening is something that is especially popular amongst those who live in colder climates. This is because the plants that they would like to grow can only be grown in certain temperatures, and those temperatures cannot be cold.

Thus, indoor gardening can be very beneficial. For example, if you are the kind of person that likes to grow your own vegetables, normally you could only do so during certain times of the year if you lived in a colder climate. However, with indoor gardening, you have much more flexibility.

The most common kind of indoor gardening is gardening that involves greenhouses. Greenhouses are specialized places that many professional gardeners as well as amateur gardeners use.

Greenhouses are made either out of glass, or out of plastic material, and can be found in a variety of different sizes. They are the preferred method of indoor gardening because the temperature in the greenhouse can be adjusted.

However, indoor gardening can be as simple as having several large pots placed in a warm area. The area that you choose will have to do with the kind of plants that you have. Growing plants in pots is an especially good idea for certain kinds of plants such as cherry tomatoes, that do not grow too large for a large pot.

If you are interested in indoor gardening, there are a few rules that you should follow. First of all, be sure that you have a room in your house that is warm enough for the plants that you would like to have, and be sure that the room gets at least partial sunlight.

Also, be sure that wherever you decide to place the plants, they will not be bothered by young children or animals. If either one tries to eat the plants, that could be dangerous. For more information on indoor gardening, visit your local gardening center. You can also search the internet for more information. You are sure to find the right information on indoor gardening with the proper research.

If you are still hungry for more information, here are a few ideas:
1) Ask a friend - you'll be surprised at how much your friends actually know
2) Libraries - try the public library or the local university library
3) Dictionary - don't forget about something as simple as the dictionary
