Right on Roger, I'll most definitely second that one. Dwaine has been very helpful to me in building a healthy soil and Steve always provides great input on topics as well.

Aw shucks....blushing now. I really did make a bad mistake one evening only to wake up the following day to find I had deducted in error.

What we really need now is for you younger growers to carry forward the messages of good soil building principles forward for others to discover.

I wish you all could see and somehow study what is taking place in this patch I call mine this year. While never perfect it is this year the finest quality soil I have ever had the pleasure to work with. The growing results are being watched with much pleasure. I am pleased this year.

I would like to thank both of these gentlemen, they may not always agree, but they both have a lot of knowledge. I think lots of us are trying to go with more "organic" ways, but when there are a cloud of cucumber beetles, the "seven" may have to be used. I respect both of you, and hope to have the honour of meeting both of you some day.

I see now why alot of HH say they dont fertilize at all, after soil test adjustments of mostly minor elements. Not to say its a bad thing i'm at 80/20 organic now hopefully i'll get to that point, and i will
