HW :Growing Our Own Food

I planted my radish seeds a day after every one else started it, but unfortunately I was one of the more careless ones and forgot that my teacher wanted me to bring them home at some point due to foul stench in the classroom. Even though my radish seeds were thrown away I was still able to make observations based on my progress. When I first started out I thought to myself " I've been placed in a much lesser role of a farmer, I have to grow my own food." My reading of Omnivores Dilemma enlightened me that this isn't even the way crops are grown. Although I wasn't terribly eager to eat my sprouts I was curious on how they tasted. What I got the most out of this was that growing your own food isn't as easy as it seems, farmers are really hard workers and should be given much more credit.
