I grow cayenne peppers to save money. One plant yields so many peppers that it’s legitimately profitable.
I do save money growing mint over buying it at the store, because mint is eternal. I’ve been making juleps and jelly out of the same mint plant for about 6 years now. But mostly I keep mint around because I like it.
Tomatoes? It’s not really about the money, it’s that grocery store tomatoes are designed for durability rather than flavor.

I’ve grown cayenne for the first time this year. I’ve got so many! It’s only in a 15l pot.
I dry and chip them. Three plants can keep me in red pepper flake for a year.
