Wouldn't a giant seed need giant amounts of nutrition and water to grow and so need giant roots and a giant amount of land, the question is does one giant plant have a more efficient root system than a load of small plants?

That's actually an awesome setup for a campaign. Either in one of those "fractured fairy tales" type games like Grimm, or just in a fantasy world really.

Well, not really. The beanstalk grew up in a night without a problem, didn't it?

>>50727582
The obvious answer is no. Smaller more nutrient dense crop is the way to go. Besides why does everyone just assume giants have giant produce?

>>50727714
It's part of the story. Giant pumpkins, giant grapes, a giant goose that lays golden eggs, and a magical harp.

>a giant goose
That would be terrifying. Pretty sure it was a normal sized goose, and that still was probably a tough task- climbing down down a beanstalk with a pissed off goose.

>>50727862
You don't have to carry it down. Just tie weights to its legs and throw it down.

>>50727332
We are already producing more food than humans can eat.
The amount is not the problem. The distribution is.
Some people just can't pay for their food.

>>50728756
Is it also the problem in not-medieval Europe?

>>50728845
Eastern Europe has some of the most fertile grounds in the world, so I'm thinking yes.

Well, there are concerns for the goose's safety (it's not going to lay golden eggs if it falls to the ground and dies) and where it ultimately ends up once you're at the bottom. After all, the goose is likely to move horizontally in an uncertain direction even if it lands safely.

Even if you fix the goose to yourself with a twine, there is still a question as to whether it will remain aloft long enough for you to descend.

My preference would be to restrain the goose's mouth and limbs, then put it in a backpack probably.

>>50728756
Also infrastructure.

>>50728863
Yet somehow, they've never really seemed too well fed.
