Many thanks to George and Karen for their intellient and experienced
responses to my question on an aging substrate. I have accidently done
some of what they suggested and found that it improved things, but I
didn't know why. It is a big help to receive a good explanation. Also,
I don't want to purposely remove any more substrates because it is a lot
of work. That is the reason that I am actively working with the old
substrates now. Slowly I am finding out what works. This list is once
again helping me to understand why.
I am guilty of simply reading the list and continuing to learn without
sharing what I know from years of growing plants. Some of my plants are
10 to 15 years old. The recent flames did bother me. So I will try to
comment more. There are many different aproaches to growing plants that
work. My way will work, but it might not fit the personality of
everyone. I think it is wonderful to be able to read about the
different methods that people are using today. This list makes it all
possible.
