In general, in the US it probably doesn't *pay* to grow peppers at
all. By the time you can grow them in a garden the local farmers
market is practically giving them away. Same with tomatoes.

Ah, a cup of coffee and a good morning rant.

Not to discredit a good rant- and I even agree with about half of it--

So, yes Jim, from a strictly bottom line appraisal (future health costs
aside), gardening doesn't make much sense.

But that's what I said. The OP seemed to be lamenting that "it
didn't pay" to start his own.

Esthetically, though, there's
not much that can compare except music and, visual arts.

Not to mention the physical and mental therapy that it provides.
