    I'm a little confused about AOC's assertion that growing cauliflower in community gardens is tantamount to the imposition of "a colonial approach." I'm no botanist but I always figured the viability of plant life was dependent on climatic conditionshttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PUJ6o4tqwyM …

        But wait till the cauliflower starts telling everybody what to do! Wait till it starts exploiting the turnips! Just you wait and see when it sows resentment & division amongst the root vegetables by elevating only the beetroot to a higher status! Where will your words be then?

        She doesn’t realize that it take 8 months to grow a Yucca plant- 8 month grow times in NY or even the Midwest would require the plant to grow inside a greenhouse. This is because as they are native to the hot and dry parts of the Americas and the Caribbean.

        Same. I've been working on my Maine banana plantation for years, can't seem to have it bear the fruits of my labors. Maybe AOC can show up and tell me how to fix?

        If a native Puerto Rican is culturally accustomed to growing and consuming plantains and yucca in consistent 65°-90° temperatures, but said Puerto Rican then migrates to Brooklyn, how does he/she plan to bring with him/her the necessary 18° latitude to grow plantains and yucca?

        There is no questioning allowed of anything the great seer and psychic AOC says, ok? Them are the rules. This goddess is here to tell us what needs to be done to avert disaster, and phds or any scientists are way beneath her wisdom. Plus, anyone questioning AOC must be a Nazi!

        This sounds like a hilarious excuse a precocious child would make for not eating her vegetables. NYC is not the right growing zone for yucca. And composting is easy. I have a compost bin on my Brooklyn roof garden.

        Yeah, if we could grow yucca, plantains, bananas, coconuts, and various other tropical plants in northern areas, we wouldn't have had to make banana republics.
