You Can’t…
When I built the little plastic covered, portable greenhouse thingy she laughed and said "that won't work."
When most of the seedlings failed she said "I told you so."
When I planted the surviving seedlings in a newly cleared patch of earth, she said "I don't think you can grow things there without conditioning the soil."
When I told her this plant was a cucumber, she said "it needs to be in a greenhouse."
When I told her it's an outdoor variety, she said "don't believe all you read on a seed packet."
When I showed her how the fruit has flourished, she said "I don't think cucumbers are supposed to grow that big."
