Is non-absorbent cotton banned in the US like aluminum powder, cigarette
lighters, box cutters, assorted effective insecticides, and alternative
fueled cars? (A G.W. Bush ban) Or Mr. Oil to his friends. (Ethanol Fuel
$1.65 gal or less)

I've done Google searches in several different ways and only found,
absorbent cotton, PDF files, dead links, requests for, and uses of non-
absorbent cotton. I did find some over seas sources but none returned my
emails. I've tried some scientific equipment suppliers like Fisher
scientific, Thomas scientific, VWR, and even tried local pharmacies. It's
here that I found that they stopped carrying it a couple of years ago.

I was planning to try flasking some orchid seed in a few baby food jars
but
it looks like I've hit a brick wall. Oh well looks like I'll be building
that Mother Earth news small parts holder after all.


Grow well and bloom magnificently
