By all means, ship. Do all you can do to get it out in the world.
After it’s out there, I’d never argue that it’s not worth safeguarding it.
There’s a level of maintenance investment, marketing, and a bit of heart to keep it remarkable.
But there’s always a point of diminishing return.
I like to think about this garden a neighbor of mine has. She plants her garden and then puts fence around it, sprays, cages, and has it essentially protected by every single pest, whether it’s native to our city or not.
Already you can imagine how overkill it is, but what’s worse is the additional effort required to maintain the garden because of all the safeguards. It’s more work for her to water and even harder for the plants to flourish because they too, are restricted.
This isn’t just about gardens, of course.
