• It should be growable in a small space.
  • Would be nice if it didnt require lot of attention.
  • Should fill my stomach
  • Would be nice if I can grow lots of it in a small time.

    This is true, if its just about the money its not worth it. But the time spent growing food is much more enjoyable than work, so its probably not a fair comparison.

    I wouldnt say ‘a ton of effort’ though. Potatoes for example you plant them, water them like any other plant and voila 2kg of potatoes. Potatoes are cheap af though so thats not gonna save you a ton of money, but theres virtually no work involved.

        What do you mean? The “potatoes are easy to grow” part? Idk, if you need to put “a ton of work” into growing potatoes youre most likely doing something wrong or are living in Antarctica.
