Growing vegetables at home is not only organic but also 100% sure shot way to get pesticide free products for consumption. One of the main reasons I grow vegetables on my terrace is that I prefer to get products that are free of synthetic insecticides

Medium watering plants: These plants require water within 4-5 days. Mostly indoor waters like spider plants and coin plants are in this category. So, these are easy-going plants in terms of watering.
