@dejayou30 - Rusty did more than just simply state anything. There was definate condensending overtones in his post, and probably just about he majority of posts I've ever read from him honestly. But I do agree with you, I was out of line to a degree, and I should have followed the forum guidlines for posting in the Plant Problems section. However, if it weren't for the "newbies" that he is reffering to that helped me to find out that my tents were toxic, I would have given up on growing by now.

So, you can blame me for being defensive, maybe to much....guilty as charged. I feel to some degree that it was justified.

Lastly, Rusty's high handed attitude with just about every one of his posts I've read is un-called for at best. He may be a growing genius but that doesn't mean he has to be arrogant and negative when he is responding to fellow growers posts regardless of skill level. I'm not asking for a luvy duvy lets all hold hands and sing age of aquarious around the camp fire...just be civil, I don't think thats asking alot.
