I will be bring you different Money saving tip's daily on saving cash in your wallet, every Tuesday. This week on Money saving tip's Living Better Cafe wants to, help you save more cash in your wallet than ever before. This week I will be giving you tip's on how you can grow you're produces, right in you're own space. Yes, You heard me correctly and it's inexpensive to. All it take's is a few containers on your patio or a space in your backyard. So, let's begin by grabbing out you're garden gloves or better yet, it's alright to get your hands down in the dirt.

Natural lighting:

1. Why of course when it comes to planting you are going to need some sort of lighting, and that is called "Sunlight".

Space,Space,Space:

2. We have already covered the lighting aspect of where you're produce will gain light. So, now you need the proper space to grown you're produces. I will give you a few suggestions here, and then you can go off and experiment with those.

For starters

* Cartons

* Coffee can

* Flower pot

* Tupperware container


Inexpensive seeds:

3. Some may say fruit and other's may call them vegetable, but either way it's still something edible.

* Bell Pepper seeds

Instead of discarding those seeds, place them onto a paper towel and allow them to dry. (Note: Dry all wet seeds on a glass or ceramic plate. Spread the seeds evenly over the surface of the plate and stir twice daily to ensure even drying and to keep them from clumping together.)

* Onion

Fill a glass with water, and place the whole onion with the root side down inside the water. And place on windowsill where it can get the most lighting possible. Note: Do remember to change the water periodical. once you begin to see green approaching out of the onion, then you can begin to start planting it into a pot.

* Jalapeno Peppers

Same as bell peppers, but when removing these seeds you will need to wear gloves. (For the notes for these seed "Read" Bell Pepper.)

* cucumber

If you have use the cucumbers for pickling then the seeds are no longer useful. Cut the ripe cucumber in half and scrape the seeds into a bowl. To remove the seeds' coating, rub them gently around the inside of a sieve while washing them or soak them in water for two days. Rinse and dry. (Note: Make sure the cucumbers you use for seed are disease-free; plus pesticide free because some diseases can be carried on seed. And could affect your future crop.)

Selecting soil:

4. Now that you have the lighting down packed and you have sorted out your space, and collected your seeds now it's time to grown your green thumb. Not every plant can handle the same soil another plant can handle so, that where you will need to call your nearest nursery for information. Or even better yet, to save on time and money you can go to your local Library and search for gardening books.
