Busy man I see. Hope the seeds work out for you and thanks for seeds and set up for sprouts you shared. The ghosts are hot as hell, but actually have good flavor behind them. The datils are totally unique. I think you will really like them. Unique taste. Yeah, only two of my kids even care about gardening or building stuff.
I have wanted an asparagus bed for years, but, like you, I'm not sure where to put it as it takes a couple years to really start producing and lasts for many years. I love cooking with it, so does the wife and 4 of the 5 kids. Steamed with Hollandaise sauce or tossed with some garlic oil. Good stuff. Home grown broccoli is probably my favorite (tastes sweeter but really stinks up the house), but asparagus and brussel sprouts aren't far behind! Roasted or mashed cauliflower, fried okra, cabbage with sweet onions cooked in bacon grease................ I love meat, but I love me some veggies too! I guess I just love food.
My hat is off to you for what you have been able to accomplish this year! I told the wife that I would wait until my previous investments paid for themselves before I would buy "much" more. A successful spring crop should get me to a break-even point before my fall plantings. It takes me about three plantings in my self wicking buckets to break even. A bucket setup costs me about $10 each. A head of cabbage, followed by a tomato plant, followed by greens or herbs pretty much gets me to or past that $10 point. My goal is to get my plants, on average, to cost $1.50 to grow out after fertilizer, replacing hardware, starting seed, fungicides, etc. That would be a $1.50 for a head of broccoli ( I also cook down the leaves as greens), or an entire tomato plant, or couple pounds of hot peppers, or 10-20 bell peppers from a plant, or 20-30 eggplants from one plant, etc. I consider my labor as free since I like doing it.
