Re: Acetate as Plant Food - Alternative to Photosynthesis

For Calliban ....

The membership of this forum is small at present, and we have plenty of room for new members.

I appears we have no one interested in agriculture, or even just growing plants, but we have plenty of room to add new members who ** are ** interested in the practical activities involved in growing plants.
