    1. Required sun-light or not?
    2. Can be indoor or at roof?
    3. How much time it takes?
    4. Watering details?
    5. Required any chemical spray or not?

    Get some pots, put some soil into them, plant some spinach and silverbeet and put them on the roof.
    Water them when they look like they need it.


    I'm growing these in containers and small raised beds, and they have a very small footprint for their output - perfect for a rooftop.
    • Spinach
    • Silverbeet (Swiss chard)
    • Potatoes in grow bags
    • Sweet potatoes
    • Garlic

    For inside, you can build a very efficient hydroponic system in a window using a small aquarium pump ($9 from eBay) and some drink bottles.
    It's worth checking out for growing small plants like silverbeet and herbs etc, especially out of season. You can grow just about whatever you want as long as it will fit in your window.

    This is my little windowfarm. I took this photo in winter in Australia when not much was growing outside.
    Now that winter is over, I use it to harden off hydro seedlings before I take them outside.

    Garlic, tomatoes and even a cucumber are very easy to grow indors. I am not sure about the details but a friend of mine had several pots with these vegetables on his balcony. And I don't think he was a great gardener so there is no way to be that hard.
