So, for example, if you enjoy the taste of fresh picked tomatoes, you could only eat them from your garden in late summer and fall, if you grew them in the traditional way. With indoor growing, you can continuously grow tomatoes year round. Outdoor grow systems expose your vegetables to the elements, which are only favorable a few months out of the year.

This doesn't just mean fewer problems for a gardener to deal with, it also means that there is less need for pesticides, which in turn means you can enjoy your foods without pesticides.
