Frankly, in my experience, people have rather entrenched ideas on
this subject and they are not likely to change them as a result of an
"expert's" opinion on e-m1il.
However, a dispassionate discussion would be useful. Even better
would be the result of some comparative studies. two sets of plants, one
treated one way and one the other and then followed over a couple years.
Something a bit more scientific than observation of single events.
