I start all seeds indoors. If I start them outdoors, forget it. Farming is not easy and it’s not always productive. Surely, all the literature - historical and fictional - tell us this is true. You must have the proper soil, sometimes you must nick the seed, you have to know the proper depth to place the seed - not necessarily difficult but takes reading the literature. Especially, if, like me, you are an essentially an urban person. Also, some people are born with a green thumb - I was not. And the most important thing: GOOD WEATHER.
I also think that the Obamas’ horrible, horrible example of expensive vacations filled with the most expensive food on the planet (truffles - like those dopes even knew what it was before they were given it in Washington - caviar, champagne, imported wine and, probably, very rare wine, locally-sourced food, etc.) have fed this narrative of rich/poor. Add in someone like Bloomberg and Harry Reid and undoubtedly, some Republicans, and it just exacerbates the divide.
Everything since 2008 has gone wrong, and food prices are one. Imho, that's the plan of this administration. We desperately need to get a conservative into the White House.
