If you love gardening but are hampered by the cold weather, you should start hydroponics gardening. Since this requires no soil, as you will just be growing vegetables, flowers or fruits on a mineral nutrient solution; you can easily harvest them even in bitter winter weather.

Hydrophonics gardening is a good hobby to start with since all you have to do is buy your kits. Plants will only need an environment with enough light to thrive, so even if it is gloomy, you can still use grow lights for your garden.
