Baby bathtubs.
Dish Pans (so that is where mine went!)
A sunny window, a bag of Walmart PRO Potting soil/mix.
Grow mixed lettuce, mustard, tomatoes, peppers, swills chard and all the oriental vegetables.
make it the varieties that you can pinch a few leaves and let it keep growing.
tomatoes and peppers are good for a couple years growth, make it the plain old cherry tomato. To pollinate, just shake the plant, or as pictured in a fancy greenhouse book, use your personal vibrator on the plant... Yes, it was in the picture.
If you have a regular onion that has sprouted, (it is time), pot it up in soil, it will split into 4 onions and you can use the leaves as chives, just pinch them off.
In the days when I could still garden, I would buy the bags of onion sets and put in pots for green onions.

Nothing prettier than rows and rows of flowering chives and they come back by themselves year after year.
