Husband finds ridiculous gardening hack to help his wife

Kristy is an avid gardener who has a very green thumb. When the pandemic was announced and food uncertainty was very real, she expanded her vegetable patch to make sure that her family had an endless supply of food. There were baskets of potatoes that filled a big part of their cold storage to get through winter and the patch itself was like a potato rainforest. Kristy not only filled the freezer with peppers, tomatoes, raspberries, and beans, but she grew enough to supply her friends and neighbours with a lot of fresh produce as well. She even had enough plants and vegetables to sell many of them for a fundraiser for a deserving family whose child was battling cancer. She worked tirelessly and her efforts paid off in many ways.

This year, Kristy told her husband that she could use some help with the huge vegetable patch. Eager to get involved, Dave rototilled for days and he dug out rocks and mulched around the tomatoes that Kristy had started. But he decided to surprise her with some extra effort in the potato section.

Dave is pretty good with a shovel, and even with the rake and the hoe, but there's a very good reason why Kristy looks after the planting part of growing their garden. She's surely going to be impressed with his thoughtfulness, if not with his understanding of gardening. Dave should probably stick to digging holes and picking rocks from now on.
