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.


In that case we are in perfect accord! Tx
