Well, it got a good discussion going, and many supported me. Don’t know if any one was convinced, but maybe at least a seed was planted.
IMHO planting the seeds is our job! I figure that once we plant them, the rest is way above our pay grade! (Other than refining our understanding of creating a good environment to grow.) You are the best one to know that, gardener that you are! :-D
Trying to convince someone who is not ready is like pulling up a plant by the roots to see if it’s growing! Very tempting, but counter-productive!
