Re: African Violets - Rock in the pots

Neither you or Alex understand the system. The rock is above the saucer
height therefore the water will flow thru the media thru the rock into the
saucer. If you over water it will flow out of the saucer. The media is
never touching the water except when it flows thru. You can not over water
with this method which is the point. Prove it doesn't work. Try it and
argue off line.

"Conflict is as addictive as nicotine, alcohol, drugs, etc.
I'm sorry to report that cooperation is not."
