How to Vertically Grow Vegetables Indoors

Attach a trellis to your wall. Wall trellises are ideal for vine plants such as tomatoes and green beans, but you can train the other vegetables to grow up the trellis as well. For a wall-trellis garden, plant vegetable seeds in traditional clay pots and place them on the floor directly above the trellis.

Plant vegetables in a shoe organizer. Hang an over-the-door shoe organizer over or door or nail it to a wall. Line each pocket with a plastic bag before filling each with soil. Use herbs and leafy vegetables that will not grow too tall.

Plant vegetables in pots or window boxes attached to the wall. Install special pot-hanging hooks to the wall where you want the pot or window boxes to be. Use tin cans instead of traditional pots as an alternative.

Place potted vegetables on wall shelves. Install shelves in a manner so that each shelf is not directly on top of the other to allow each plant plenty of room to grow.
