 Hi All

I wonder what the cost  is for the chiles we grow and harvest ourselves?

If we could log all the time we spend fussing and tending our plants and charge
that at a commercial rate. Plus the actual cash we invest in our efforts.

Divide that by the weight of fruit we harvest.

I think $30.00kg would seem pretty cheap in my case.

How about you?
