It is all simple when you know Paul but we have been years at it and sometimes we still run into unexpected trouble. Thing is that we will be much faster than a beginner to find solutions. I can only pity the people that intend to start trying the moment it will be really necessary.

That picture struck me. Our experience at markets tells us people are in serious trouble, their limited cooking skills & so much frustration trying to grow a few things themselves. So like most others at the mercy of the supermarket & middlemen. Lots of people would love to grow and cook, at least where we see them. They care about pesticides & GMOs. Also strikes me as odd that our clientele had trouble with curly top virus on tomatoes but it never occurred to them to Google it. I took them straight to it. Clue: the leafhopper that spreads it doesn't like to feed in shade, so row covers.

I had to search a bit before I happened to see the name Las Vegas. I saw my first super market in 1965.
