Awesome meeting, everyone! Thanks for hosting, Ghazanfar, and for sharing so much about your tanks and your trip to Tropica, that was really cool.
I've reviewed the videos, and while I'm pleased and a little impressed with the quality of video produced by the Flip, I also learned two important things:
1) The battery life is not long enough to get the whole meeting; and
2) I have a lot to learn as a videographer.
Nonetheless, I will try to get the videos posted by the end of the weekend.
Oh, and a couple of people asked for the BBQ recipe, so I'll get that posted, too.
Loved the meeting. Loved GG's tanks. Food was exceptional. Need cabbage and cheese dip recipe asap. I met new people and saw a few that I had not seen in a while. What a wonderful way to spend a Saturday. Thank you everyone!
The tissue cultures would seem to be a viable way to to get the plants you want, but looks like one could become obcessed.
Hey G, are you working on culturing cyperus helferi? Never enough of that plant available.
Francine Once you go Dutch you can't stop trimming.
My second meeting and I am so glad I found this group! GG's commentary on the tanks and the presentation on the Tropica visit was terrific.
Your tanks are beautiful and I loved the OEBT and the Riccardia Chamedryfolia.
I learned a lot at this visit and got some wonderful plants in the auction: a large number of my wish list items. They're now in the basement in a bucket awaiting planting tomorrow.
I look forward to seeeing all of you next meeting. A 2 hour drive each way and worth every mile!
