Raised garden beds

If you live in a colder area, this might be the move to make. This helps keep the plants away from the frost on the ground. Not to mention

Greenhouses

If you can afford one (or maybe even build it yourself) these are another great option! Find the right space in the backyard and get that greenhouse up! This helps keep out any of those darn bugs that are looking to eat your plants. There are also a wealth of other benefits to it!

Grow tents

Have some extra space in the garage? A grow tent might be the choice for you. These things are truly amazing and come with so many benefits. Think about it this way, you can essentially grow any plant you want all year long! No need to worry about weather, soil, bugs or any of that stuff.

Tiered shelving

Many companies are really stepping their game up with these. Vertical farming is actually a really popular term here. Check out the video below to see how it works!

Good ol fashioned light through the window

Not really into all this fancy equipment? Maybe you have a nice big open window where you can put your plants right in the sunlight!
