  1. Growing gherkins is probably not the most wise choice. I have about 2kg of them and bought ingredients to pickle them. Right then and there I saw the price for gherkins: 1€ for 1kg. I've spent more on the dirt, the pots and the seeds than it'll ever get a return of investment. Most of it are initial investment cost that amortize each year after upon reuse but still.

    1. @adiwan Time to really lean on that "homegrown, artisanal" vibe

      1. @scribus Yeah. It was just a small reality check I got when I was in the shop and me asking why I do "waste" my resources. I already did a similar thing with salad as it is hard to grow a lot and not taste bitter. Same thing with radishes as they are way too stubborn to grow a bulbous root. The effort in that case is wasted in comparison to the results. At least my gherkins grow properly and plentiful.
