Or just an apocalypse in general.

    Same. How long can you survive on 6 rows of radishes? Maybe push starvation off for an extra day?

      My go to is honestly always 2 row sunflowers, from right 2 spike rocks, then tall-nut and rest filled up with melon-pult and one row of winter melon

        I use a couple of garlic on the top and bottom rows to funnel them closer to the center. Melons can hit chumps in a 3x3 area, so having everybody within a span of 3 lanes is optimal.

        In terms of what you’re going to eat, though, I have no idea.

        I have stuff growing in my allotment, but other than radishes most of it isn’t going to be edible before I would starve if there was a zombie apocalypse today. Plus even if I converted everything to potatoes it still isn’t going to be enough kcal for someone to survive off it. Which is why I don’t practice subsistence farming and instead grow things that are tasty or would be expensive to buy.

        Need to buy them for next year but higher quality garlic can easily go for over £1 a bulb so I want to get some nice varieties. Currently growing some random softneck sort I got as a plant on discount a few years ago and grew in the garden, which is fine but now looking to grow something more special. Plus I have more space, could easily grow several hundred bulbs now.

        Radishes? They are not that big, but certainly fast growing. Plan to put more seeds down soon, this morning I put in what is hopefully a more efficient irrigation setup.

          Oh i was referencing a game. Plants vs zombies. It has 6 rows for the mutated super plants to grow so I thought you were talking about it too.

            Ohhhh no, not played that game so didn’t really think about it but it makes sense now. I just happen to have 6 rows of radishes and 6 rows of beetroot on one bed and as radishes grow fastest so they are nearly ready.
