Hi I just had the awesome thought of growing dandelions! It's winter and the dandelions are gone, so that means no free turtle food! :( Ok, solution: Grow it indoors!

Does anyone do this? If yes, how? Educate us! :D

Thanks in advance! :)

I think endives are OK but I haven't tried growing them indoors before. It's probably not hard but I'm not sure if it's worth it.

Why wouldn't it be worth it? The only reason I would be buying seeds this season is because I can't gather them because they are all gone now haha Before the next winter, I'll probably gather some seeds and try out growing them indoors.

Mainly it uses up space and attracts insects. If you have experience with it, I would go ahead and try it.
