David said he cuts off dead bits and says the dead bit he's cut off is
not contributing substances. I said that dead is dead but live feeds
the plant. They both say the same thing, or they should.


I cut away the dead bits. However, I leave a very small portion of dead
so as not to injure any live portion of the leaf.

At least, that is what I meant.

Do you think that what I wrote negates what you wrote?
