I agree - total self-sufficiency isn't really an option and I have never thought it could be for me, never mind how much I fantasized. What I want to do is grow "sufficient" and not "surplus" of the things I can grow because, so often, that "surplus" becomes "waste" - a waste of growing space, time, effort and seeds.
Some things are relatively easy to grow - like courgettes and beans, and, because I find them easy, I grow too many. I need to diversify, for example grow different types of beans with some set aside for drying or stagger the sowings so they don't all crop at once.
Still musing and arguing with myself.
