[APD] Re: Rug Gardening

["Phil Edwards" <biotypical at hotmail_com>]

Scott.

Thanks, Phil,  I didn't mean to come off like a jerk, if I
did.  RUGs work with plants -- there's lots of examples.

    Don't worry, you didn't.

I just wondered about whether the nutrient thing.

    It's something to think about.  Since to tore the tank down I often 
wonder about the hows and whys of what caused that tank to do what it did.

It's beyond my 'expertise" and I use the term in quotes for
a reason ;-) .

    You're just a quotable guy..

Like Roger, or someone like him, said a few months ago,
it's a legitimate method among many for growing plants,
even though we don't hear much about it on APD.

    I can understand that, I wouldn't have done it if it hadn't been the 
only real option for filtration and CO2 diffusion.  Let me tell you, a 3" 
gravel bed can diffuse CO2 like nothing else!

Best,
Phil
