But you are not supposed to calculate 10 years for how much the vegetables cost with such a purchase, right?
No, although arugula, like many other things, grows in normal soil and is satisfied with rain.
Arugula comes back every year, mint and chives also without any effort.
Only the greenhouse, but it is a design element in the garden, which can be very well viewed from every side. It is an eye-catcher that probably overall is still cheaper than extra wind protection, garden box, etc.
Or are you including the land value? [emoji1]
We didn't buy that separately; it is included with our property [emoji6]
I don’t include water costs and hourly wages when I have a hobby, otherwise I wouldn’t be allowed to cook but always have to eat out. At an hourly rate of 40€, that actually turns out to be cheaper for me.
When calculating, everyone should also reconsider their expensive Bora ventilation, their TM or other costly gadgets and their gas grill as well [emoji6]
For me, the last harvest from the greenhouse was downright comfortable: I rarely had to go to the supermarket to get cucumbers and tomatoes.
