Book excerpt: Your space, your rules. How to become self-sufficient in even the tiniest of apartment spaces... Have you ever wondered what it would take to become self-sufficient, even if you lived in a city apartment? The idea may sound absurd at first. When we think of self-sufficiency, our mind directly travels to a secluded and primitive farm somewhere in the countryside, to those vast stretches of fertile lands, and that long line of bleating sheep blocking the road as you're driving away to escape the city and its distractions. For better or worse, we have come a long way from how our ancestors used to live--industrial development and cities have transformed our lives in ways previously unimaginable. Drowned in the promise of comfort and effective task division, we have slowly walked away from the idea of self-sufficiency. We have been led to believe that we can procure anything we would ever want or need with money. That eventually proved to be a failed strategy. By becoming increasingly dependent on others to provide us with our most basic needs, we quickly lost control over the quality of the products we receive. And in return, we pay much more for the quality we should never even have lost in the first place. In fact, since 1940, the produce we consume has actually lost over 40% of its nutritional value in favour of bigger yields. But now things are starting to change--humanity's best asset has always been its creativity. Our ability to think outside the box has allowed us to effectively transform and reshape the interior of the urban boxes we live in. Who needs a big farm when you can convert your apartment into a garden capable of making enough quality produce to last you a whole year? With the right guidance and the proper tools, you can become one of the 33% of Americans who grow their own food and pride themselves on barely ever needing to visit the vegetable section of the grocery store. In Urban Gardening, you will discover: The 6 most effective types of gardens to choose from to make your closed-off urban space as productive as an outdoor garden Step-by-step guidance on how to effectively plan your home for the largest variety of crops that your space allows How a hydroponic system is the answer to an easy, hassle-free indoor gardening experience Different strategies to utilize for a green and fruitful garden all year long, regardless of the seasons and weather conditions The ideal soil mixtures that will promote healthy plant growth in your garden How to process and save your own seeds so as to avoid the extra costs of buying seedlings The most effective ways to build a self-sustainable indoor garden promising a self-sufficient lifestyle in the city And much more. The road to self-sufficiency is not easy, but it's also far from being impossible. Even in the confines of a city apartment, you now have the possibility to effectively manage your space and grow all kinds of tasty and flavourful crops. This is indeed your chance to regain control of the quality of the produce you eat--you are the one managing what goes on your plants and inside your soil. All it takes is some creative planning and a little patience. From there on, spending as little as 10 minutes per day, you can watch your indoor garden flourish into the abundant food source previously thought impossible in concrete cities.
