I have stuff growing in my allotment, but other than radishes most of it isn’t going to be edible before I would starve if there was a zombie apocalypse today. Plus even if I converted everything to potatoes it still isn’t going to be enough kcal for someone to survive off it. Which is why I don’t practice subsistence farming and instead grow things that are tasty or would be expensive to buy.
Need to buy them for next year but higher quality garlic can easily go for over £1 a bulb so I want to get some nice varieties. Currently growing some random softneck sort I got as a plant on discount a few years ago and grew in the garden, which is fine but now looking to grow something more special. Plus I have more space, could easily grow several hundred bulbs now.
