check it out here.

Awesome! Thank you for the link! I just figure that like in anything else, if you want to be successful, you have to have knowledge. I would even venture to say that there is a strong correlation between success rate and amout of time spent studying.
budlover13 Reviewed by budlover13 on . Botanists or Horticulturalists? I was just curious as to whether there are any Botanists or Horticulturalists on the forum? I'm a Land Surveyor by trade myself, but I'm a decent gardener. By NO means an expert. The forum is awesome for sharing ideas, info, and experiments, but it would be AWESOME if there were someone on the forum that has a formal education in the field. If anyone on the forum matches this description, PLEASE, make yourself known and I guarantee you will become a VERY popular member.:D:smokin: Rating: 5
