'mare-y berries, nannyberries, Chunks o' Joy'
I think we got off the subject a little? But I noticed in all the blogs and stories that nobody seems to consider their water. Now that 'fracting' is being used to extract trapped gas in shale...I believe most of our water supplies are poisonous to our beloved plants but at least you ladies seem to have the upper (or scrooper) hand on it.
I was thinking about plant roots eat dirt... Think about it for a minuet. We eat food,, they eat dirt. Of course not directly, but like us we need bacteria to break it down. So do plants. They have microbes growing on their roots and this breaks down the dirt so they could feed off it. When we give water already coutured with these microbes and bacteria, we give them a head start. So I think??? Makes since? With natural, not chemical, fertilizer we are giving them what they want. I think the word nutrients is the better word to use instead of fertilizer.

PS I do not always think so heavy,, It wears me out.
