For me the concern isn't specific to Chocobo Raising but to the design principles behind it. An FC has however many members and, for most FCs, 1 or 2 gardens (seeing as Larges are the minority). An FC of 12 could have a small house, or an FC of 150 could. Regardless of the size, the chances of one or two gardens being able to pump out enough vegetables to sustain members wanting to train their chocobo every hour is slim, and slimmer still considering different people may want different types of food, and yet even slimmer still because of rank restrictions on gardening.

Your point about personal housing is true, but that's not here yet, and we still don't know for sure when it is (other than they want it in before 2.4). They're already limiting this aspect of the game to FCs with houses, and now limiting it further with the restrictions I mentioned above. I'm not a fan of that personally, and I'm in a tightly-knit FC where I'll have access to all of it without too much frustration. What about others?

Ultimately I'm not too fussed about it because it's one aspect of a much larger and more exciting patch, and Personal Housing might just be the thing that addresses my worries with this. It is a trend that's been continuing for a while though that I just don't understand. Access to fluffy casual fun time content like that is what keeps people invested and coming back because they're lightweight goals able to be worked on at any time and at your own pace. You'd think the idea would be to make it as accessible as possible.

Edit: It is also entirely possible as well that we don't know certain things about this patch that would also address these types of concerns. As was mentioned above we'll just have to find out in a few days.
