Hello folks, There has been much discussion about the usability of nitrogen depending on how it is bound. Many people claim that urea nitrogen fertilizers don't get utilized as well as nitrate nitrogen fertilizers.
Wayne Roberts, of Roberts Flower Supply (orchidmix.com) and I, Steve Topletz of Nascent Orchids (nascentorchids.com) are partnering up to resolve this debate by putting the fertilizers to the test. We are using Dr. Wang's experiments as a starting point, and we are going to specifically address the issue of urea versus non-urea nitrogen usage. However, in order to make this information relevant, we need to ask you some questions about the materials we use in the experiment. Otherwise, the data won't be practical to most of us. I have created the poll below to for you OGDers to answer. However, since the poll is cheap and free, it is limited to only 100 voters. So vote early if you want to have a hand in the design of the experiment. If you have other suggestions that I have not addressed, please drop me a line. Or better yet, email it to Wayne, he was recently telling me he loves to answer hundreds of emails a day. PLEASE VOTE AT THE SURVEY WEBSITE BELOW IT ONLY TAKES A FEW SECONDS ************************************************************** http://www.votations.com/asp/survey.asp?pollid=125723 ************************************************************** Keep in mind, if you are wondering why some things aren't on the list, we are trying to use inert medias to reduce the variables presented. Thanks for your time Steve Topletz [EMAIL PROTECTED]
