I appreciate this comment. I think people hand-wave away the difficulties of running a small garden. Yes, sometimes things go great but often you are dealing with pests and diseases that require time, knowledge, and capital to resolve. If you can't make that commitment, then you just won't have any yield for that crop that year. Self-sustainable living is an interest of mine, and one of my peeves is seeing folks on YouTube or Reddit posting tutorials on how to build a home hydroponic garden when it's clear that they have just finished building it. If you can keep it running for a couple of years, then that's when I would be interested in hearing more about it.
