I WAS RIGHT !!!!

<I WAS RIGHT, YOU CAN'T "CLONE" PRODUCE OUT OF THE REFRIGERATOR. SO THE CILANTRO EXPERIMENT ENDED IN FAILURE. THAT'S OK, MY RESEARCH ON GROWING CILANTRO ON THE INTERNET WASN'T VERY ENCOURAGING, SEEMS IT ONLY GROWS IN THE SPRING AND FALL, SO IT WASN'T A VERY GOOD INDICATION OF WHETHER HYDROPONICS WILL WORK ON THE DESERT.

I DID HOWEVER GET THIS ENCOURAGING E-MAIL FROM AN AN OLD DEALER FRIEND FROM THE MISS MARQUETTE RIVERBOAT CASINO:

Hi Rex & Mary,

Read with interest your blog about hydroponics. About 20+ years ago I sold plants on a party plan that were grown hydroponically. It should work just fine in your desert climate. They are the lowest maintenance plants I ever grew. Vegetables will grow just fine this way. Just thought you would like to know.

WHEN CILANTRO FAILED I INSERTED CHERRY TOMATO SEEDS INTO THE ALREADY SOAKED UP ROCKWOOL CUBES.

....... AH ...... GOOD LUCK REX !!!!

YOU KNOW I'M SICK OF LOOKING AT THAT EMPTY WATER FARM POT................

SOOO....... I PULLED UP MARY'S ROSEMARY PLANT AND HOSED OFF THE ROOTS AND PLANTED IT IN THE LITTLE CLAY ROCKS OF THE WATER FARM. JUST FOR THE RECORD, MARY WAS AGAINST THIS IDEA. SHIT, WHAT WOULD A WISCONSIN FARM GIRL KNOW ABOUT HYDROPONICS COMPARED TO A COLLEGE BOY THAT GOT A "D" IN CHEMISTRY. AT LEAST I CAN LOOK AT SOMETHING GREEN IN MY FANCY NEW POT.
