Tenkani, theory is great for starters, but actually experiencing what you have been studying makes it so much more meaningful.  The tactile input has a way of reinforcing in your mind everything you have learned.

 As I said, the more hands-on approach!

It is safe to say here on DS that MIKE is teh ultimate NOOB when it comes to DV and Moderating practices.  LOL.

  I feel special now, actually.  He said that because of me, he will make sure registration comes to place.  WOW!  [sarcasm]

Does he mean that you will be responsible for bring some sanity to DV?  Isn't it a bit late for that?

You guys are right about the hands-on, which is why I'm a plant n00b even after 2 semesters!!

  I'm trying to get experience, but the best way to do that would be to find work in horticulture, but I can't afford to quit my job yet. D'oh. The next best thing is to grow plants in my spare time, which I'm doing, but it's very hit and miss right now.

  As far as registration on DV goes, After about the 3rd missed deadline I realized it probably won't happen. If it does, fine, but I'm not holding my breath. I just think that honesty would have been better than all the broken promises. Just say "it's too much work and we've got more important things to do" and I would at least respect them for being upfront with their slothful ways.

Wow.

Talk about ebb and flow.

A brilliant afternoon to you tenkani !!!!

  I think there is a little more ebb than usual.

  Somehow I missed that you were studying horticulture (until recently)  How long have you been studying for this, and how long is the course ?  I have a sister that's never had a day of formal study, and is amazing with plants (trees, shrubs, veggies etc).  She can grow anything and knows all plants by their botanical names.  She can bring back plants that appear to not have a shred of life in them  (they even save the less 'attractive' plants to give to her at some of the stores where she lives)  They not only survive, she pinches and prunes and snips in all the right places to make them lush and beautiful.

I'm envious.

I'm envious too!!!    :0

  I definitely do NOT have that natural green thumb.

I will have to work hard and grind away at it.

Fortunately I'm interested in the field so that makes it easier.

I've been taking classes for 2 semesters and loving it over all.

I just wish I was gifted    

  On the positive side, none of my plants at home have died, even though a few have probably come close after getting zapped by a few weeks of frequent frost.

Half the trick in gardening is to realise that plants, like everything create, respond to love and affection.
