Hi Terry,

1+ Have trouble putting the stuff down.

I have a theory as to why folks don't eat their vegi's. It is
because they taste like crap. I love home grown and local grown.

I have to agree with the taste theory . Commercial growers don't care
about taste , they care about shipping well and profit . I care about flavor
, but even more important I care about the fact that I don't use chemicals
to grow my fruits and veggies . The only things I use are some 13/13/13
fertilizer (sparingly) , a BT product and a fungicide when necessary .
