Default Re: Still Think TX Star Can't Handle Zone6? - How About Zone 4?

Hey, Chong, chill, dude! :P

Just joking, but I want to make sure you didn't "suspect" I was directing my comments specifically towards you. After all, you were clear in your comment above:

I believe that the CA Gold also came from that part in TX. The stories of the sources of these plants are so similar that you'd suspect that they are the same plant. However, there are some members here that may be upset if you did imply that. So I won't go there.
You weren't stating anything as "fact", there. Nobody has accused you of being a Ty Ty secret advertising agent either. I would, however, like for you to post your mug shot here on the forum so that we can keep an eye out for you turning up in any of the Ty Ty ads. I don't remember Jeff Earl ever saying what part of Texas his banana came from. I he said the guy got it from Mexico and he didn't have a name for it.

Hey, Bob, get 10 of each so we can have a really good comparison with some statistical significance! I can assure you with 95% confidence that California Cold Hardy is not very similar to Dwarf Orinoco or California Gold. It is a taller plant and produces large bunches. The closest relationship may be in the relationship of the two guys promoting them.

I'm trying to get my hands on a Texas Star also so that I can compare them, but not under scientific conditions, just for fun so I can say they "seem" similar, different, or whatever.
