[quote=Anonymous]It varies- in good years I think I have, but other years the conditions and pests turned everything to sh-t. I grow a lot from seed (either directly sewing for things like greens and beans or start indoors for tomatoes/peppers). I actually think my best years were when I was part of community garden- the fee was low and we banded together to get a bulk compost delivery. There was also a good fencing system that kept out things like deer,rabbits and rodents (although certain insect pests could be a problem- once one plot got something everyone got it). Whereas once we had a house there was a lot of upfront investment and I am constantly battling the damn squirrels and rabbits. Last year the tomato plants went bonkers with all the rain but something was constantly stealing them while still green.[/quote]
