Window board buffet

One thing I was wondering was if the heat from a candle is enough to keep the frost out of a greenhouse during the winter months. If it was it would allow ordinary people to grow more food for themselves. 
Then I was wondering if I could grow spinach in a box with LED lights to power the photosynthesis. I have recently figured out how to grow and polinate tropical fruit inside my home. 
As a response to food shortages and high prices, I started to grow tropical fruit like peppers and tomatoes on window boards in window boxes. I turned window spaces in my home into a buffet table. 

I lost many flowers because they don't produce fruit unless they're pollinated. There are no bees in my home so I used a small water colour paintbrush to transfer the pollen between the flowers. It worked. I think about 50 flowers fell off because they weren't pollinated before I tried to pollinate it myself with a small paint brush. I gently push the paint brush into the flower and rotate it to get some of the pollen, then I push the brush into another flower on another plant.
