RE: Tiny split
Sorry to hear of this development Andrew. There's probably not a grower on
this list with more than a couple years experience who hasn't had something
similar happen to one we had pinned our hopes on. It's a sick sinking
feeling. It was nice to have an opportunity to share your excitement while
it lasted. You know now how to get them that big and no doubt one day
you'll be able to duplicate your effort with better results. I know you'll
let us know what the end result is for your season of hard work. I wish you
the best of luck.
