Plot

Donald tries to grow a victory garden, but three pesky crows keep eating his seeds. After many failed attempts to outwit the crows, Donald's nephews give Donald a victory garden in his own bedroom with the aid of invisible seeds.

Production

Barks was given a script by the studio, accompanied by the following note: "Here is a 10-page story for Donald Duck. Hope that you like it. You are to stage it, of course. And if you see that it can be strengthened, or that it deviates from Donald either in narration or action, please make the improvements."[2] Barks rewrote the story before drawing it and, from then on, he both scripted and illustrated his stories, with few exceptions.

gollark: They do a bunch of black magic to execute the instructions or micro instructions in parallel.
gollark: A 4GHz Zen2 CPU will massively beat a Pentium 4.
gollark: Modern CPUs already kind of do what you said though.
gollark: Well, yes.
gollark: If a task which used to take 100ms takes 50ms now, that's a 50% improvement but I may not even notice.
