Hello all,

I decided to try out the LDD method, and while the jury's still out on
the final result, I did a little research to try and figure out just
how and why it might work.


Of course there are some who believe it's the hydroxyl group that works the
"magic" you attribute to the sulfate ion.

It could be the artificial coloring in the LDD, for all I know. I
just figured it'd be a good conversation.

Oh yes, the only living cells in a tree are _not_ wood.

That's true, but if the chemical cracks the xylem, then it might stop
them from collapsing.

Just in case you were interested in doing a little research....

Well, of course. But it's a slow process.
