Soils, nutrients, temperatures etc. Makes sense. What do you think?
That is a bunch of Mumbo-Jumbo. My friend in Belle Glade has some asgristarts Ice Creams and they look exactly the same as everyone else's around the country. I have purchased in excess of 2500 plants from agristarts, and when I first started purchasing from them they had some real issues with mixed trays. 6 out of 72 Dwarf NamWahs turned out to be 12-16' tall plants that looked like what they were selling as Ice Cream
