It doesn't always go to plan

[Jace]

Living in an apartment, I only have a small garden (less than 1 square meter), but this year managed to grow a couple of huge Chinese cabbages and a few herbs, with some tomato and pepper seedlings just planted. We went away for 3 days over the weekend, only to come home and find that torrential rain has waterlogged everything, with stuff not drowned basically all eaten by caterpillars. Bugger!

I'm now going to see what I can grow indoors; anyone have suggestions for low maintenance veg that can be grown in pots?
