Please explain how you provide tree food by applying to leaves. How
to you provide food for an autotroph?

Silly!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


Since you seem to object to the term "foliar feeding", what
nomenclature would you prefer be used for the process of supplying
trace elements by direct application to the leaves of certain plants?
Or is the basis of your obection that you feel that the observed
results of that procedure are simply a fluke that would have occurred
anyway independently of such application?

You know John, it is possible to win every battle and lose the war. You
are like a bad girlfriend that clings and clings and clings. You may be
right but no one wants to here it. Omnipresent is not a good idea. You
are becoming back ground noise.

SPARINGLY, voice your opinion, maybe give a couple of references and
BACK-OFF. Tell me this and tell me that and define me this and define me
that has become one major pain in the butt to many of us. As big a jerk
as D. Staples is, he doesn't post four or five times at a shot. As much
as I admire what you are trying to do, I'm ready to put you in my
killfile. Putain, c'est sufficient. Arręte. Enough.
