So in other words, people put too much thought into growing a garden.

 

I personally just till the earth up, apply a bit of top soil and plant 'em.

 

I grow tomatoes (way more than we usually use), squash, melons, chili and a few other varieties of peppers as well as some various herbs.  I water the plants as needed and maybe once a week I go out and pull the weeds around them.

 

My small garden in my back yard is only about 15ft. x 30ft, but it yields fresh produce for us and I use no chemicals whatsoever.  We also buy fresh produce from produce stands usually along Hwy. 301.  It's less expensive than any grocery store or especially the hipster "Fresh Market".

 

That's not the point of this thread though.  My wife and I still pay WAY too much for health insurance.  Here is a small example of what MUST be included under the current 0bamacare law.  Our "health care" plan MUST include maternity coverage, even though we stopped popping out babies years ago.  It's actually physically impossible for us to get pregnant, yet we MUST have coverage for that.  Why is that?
