Waiting for vertical growing potatoes, not a drawing or a pretty box.

One man, one variety, one failure.. As I noted, with one replicate and one variety your observations can be nothing but anecdotal, demonstrating only your single experience. Thus they carry no wider meaning or significance. You see a positive observation or experience has meaning, it carries weight. A negative observation or experiece does not. There is no net information or knowledge gained.

No matter. I wish you success in your endeavors, contentment in your knowledge and that you enjoy your sour grapes along with your crow.
