Re: [Aroid-l] Trudy the Titan is Back

Bill,

thanks for the explanation!

I have not thought about soil vacuum cleaners, but it's a nice idea to
remove the top soil without the danger of hurting the tuber.

I fully understand your paranoia ;-)
My titan is far from 19 kg, but I am working on it.

Good growing,
Bernhard.
