Re: [GSAS-Member] Potential Speaker Topic : Ferts

[Paul Wallace <pwallace@u.washington.edu>]

Shango:

Your point is well taken in that a fish club IMHO should invite speakers from 
every corner of the hobby to get a global view.  At the same time, the members 
provide knowledge and support to turn an interest into a full fledged 
addiction.  Those that have pick up the planted bug know that there are a lot 
of factors that determine success and several bizarre practices (like ADDING 
nitrate!) or bringing home compressed gas cylinders.  Talks that dwell on the 
technical and do not hold the interest outside of the planted folks don't do 
well.

So this is a long way of saying that the newsletter is a great place for a 
reasoned debate as to modern practices.  You will find information in the 
newsletter archive (http://www.gsas.org/Articles/) or on the vast internets.  
If you would like an article on ferts, I can try to build something for next 
month or anyone can post their experiences here.
