Sure. In terrace, usually vegetables are grown in sacks, called grow bags. You can get grow bags online through Amazon, eBay etc also. 

You can also check the site below. They provide seeds and grow bags. If you have time and resources to invest, it will be really a very healthy option for you and your family.

I think I should contact the Nursery. There are known people too who can demonstrate the use of Row bags, I live n a  large flat on a Third floor which has three open balconies . My house maid lives in suburbs. On her way she has to cross many village fairs. I think she can give me some information regarding this.

Cabbage is good no doubt. But we need to be very careful with that because it is one vegetable that can be made artificially. In China they have been using this artificial cabbage unofficially for a few years now. It wont be long for it to come to India (not sure if its already available in India also. You wont have much difference in taste and look, so hard to find)

Please check this video to see how its being made.

It's such risky. How can one judge that the cabbage is real or artificial? You posted a great link. I had no idea about artificial cabbage. 

There is one variety of vegetable known as 'Brussel Sprouts which looks exactly like cabbage but very small in Size. These Brussel Sprouts are equally rich in, Vitamins, proteins, Anti oxidants.

These Mini cabbages are well known for preventing Prostate ,colon,and endometrial Cancers.

Never seen them in market are these mini cabbage available in India???

Grow bags ? I heard about grow bags from you only  now. That may be because i don't have much knowledge nor interest in Vegetable gardening. I think I should discuss with my wife. She grows only some limited number of plants like Hibiscus Tulsi required for her Pooja..  However, i contact the Nursery maintained by the corporation which is not far away

I think grow bags and ready pots to grow plants. Here you are talking about tares gardening. For a family which have 4 to 5 members need at least half Kg. lady finger for one time. Is it possible with terse gardening.
