Rain
Why is it I can keep my garden wet and fertilised, but after a rain
the plants always get a bigger boost. Im on city water. I live on a lake and wonder if pumping lake water would have the same effect as rain. |

Many people in this area use a pump with a pickup at the lake for lawn sprikler systems.. |

It is Distilled water from the air and city water has all kinds of stuff to kill germs and stuff to help your teeth not fall out. What Man Drinks should not be put on nature.

Mostly, you're just sitting somewhere farting and smirking and making stupid comments. I presume you're the guy in the movie theater with the cell phone. I miss the news reader software that warned: Stop. You're about to send out a message to millions of machines costing people thousands of dollars to transport and store it. Are you REALLY sure you want to send this? |

Rain
Its not a Troll, for for I just put in 85 large Hostas and
perennials and have a moldy green thumb to. We in the midwest went through a super dry april and I watered everything , kept the ground wet. Well after the First rain wham everything pops. Now after 3 weeks no rain it rains and next morning same thing . I have great soil , soil is wet 14" deep and heavily fertilised, but Rain makes a difference , Yes we have chlorene , flouride, but there may be a O3 relationship , nitrogen , or its the chlorene , flouride. A Troll, Go grow some tomatoes guys , They are better than store bought any day, mine often go to 1.5 lb. Remember water is not water , if you people Knew what I was talking about you wouldnt have responded as a Troll.... The beer is for me as Turtle helped me again. |

Did ya know there are over 2000 variaties of Hostas and Sum and
Substance has a record of Four feet x 114 inches. Mine are big and yes I saw a 4" pop after the rain in 12 hrs. Amazing. If the plants do better maybe the " Naders " are right about Flouride and Chlorene. Even my Lawn never looks great till a rain. What is nature telling us. |

My old man always said that the more lightning there was in a rain storm, the greener the crop. Old man Moser, my ag teacher, said that rainwater contained more nitrogen than ground water.
