The plants don't simply grow in the pot, you had to get potting soil which had to be transported and was most likely packaged in plastic.
You might have driven somewhere to get the seeds, etc.
The pots had to be made from clay (needs quite some energy to be fired in a kiln) or plastic.
And your scenario might be even one of the more optimal ones, with no additional land use...
- archerx 3y agoI actually got the dirt from outside because I was lazy, it was there and for free. The pots I have I have had them for almost 10 years now. I recollect the seeds from the previous harvest because I'm curious about breeding (I was slowly getting to a black sunflower for fun). I don't even use fertilizer. I mix in all the remaining green matter into the post once autumn has killed everything. My little set up doesn't produce very much but my goodness the flavor is much stronger compared to store bought, especially tomatoes.
