Haha HvyFuel, I am a hypocrite, because I do talk to my plants nice and close so they can get the CO2 from my breath, but not all day long at least. Sometime I can't help but sit and stare at those beautiful things! Oh Cherylsyv, which book did you pickup? Me a publisist for Ed? Yeah I'd do it in a heartbeat. I'm all about people learning and overgrowing this country, but there are so many people that start growing without even learning the basics, they'll spend all this money on supplies, but forget the book with sound knowledge. I am a fan of Ed's books and I buy them and recommend them because of his years of experience. By purchasing his books you are thanking him and supporting him as well, and that's what he really needs, especially after his arrest.
