I'll be driving to the mtg from Urbana MD (just south of Frederick). I have extra seats in my minivan if anyone wants to ride with me.

I am coming with Sean and Andrey. I am planning on bringing:

- Blyxa japonica
- Eichhornia diversifolia
- Heteranthera zosterifolia (stargrass)
- Ludwigia repens
- Nesaea sp.
- Vallisneria nana

Also, I have the following for free. If anyone wants it, let me know:

- Hygrophila polysperma 'Sunset'
- Hygrophila polysperma 'Tiger'

It should be nice weather so I'm taking the bike, if you dare there is one seat open!!

[Aaron]

If we are selling things at the meeting is the split 50/50 since we are non-members or how is that working? That's what is says on the sellers sheet.

I've emailed Joel to find out, Aaron. Good question!

[krisw]

Actually, it is an 80/20 split for GWAPA members at this meeting since it's a joint meeting. Joel confirmed.

Just checking in to see if anyone wants to ride with me to the mtg. I am in the Frederick MD area. Lot of room in my minivan.

Aaron I really liked your talk on fertilization, it was very informative and covered all the bases. However there is one question that I didn't think of asking at the time, I am the master at removing the red from plants, so is it because I'm lacking nutrients or is it something else altogether.

Examples of my now green plants, Ludwigia glandulosa, Rotala macrandra 'Japan red', Rotala sp. colorata, and I gor some Rotala wallichii at this meeting that I will be adding to my tank and I'm sure in a week it will lose some of the nice color it had when purchased.

Aaron, I appreciated your presentation too. I did have a question about timing of the macros and the micros. I have my lights come on from 3pm -10pm each day. Should I does the N, P, and K at 1pm, and then the micros an hour later at 2pm? Or do I need to wait longer between dosing the micros and macros?

I'm not Aaron, but I'll answer anyway. I dose micros and macros within minutes of each other, and have had no problems.
