You betcha' you can. I buy a .99 cent packet of seeds in the early spring and start them indoors. By May I'll have roughly 3 dozen plants if everything works right. Even if it doesn't, I'll have 18 to 24 plants. That's a pile of tomatoes. Of course, I'm not counting tools and labor and all that. Gardening is a hobby and isn't neccesarily intended to beat anyones price. I look at the garden as an outdoor project that I start every year and take great pride in the succesful completion.
