  • No that never happens /S

    I used to work with a supplier that hired a former Monsanto executive as their CEO. When his first agenda came out I told their sales team he was an idiot and to have fun looking for a new job a few months.

    The CEO bailed after 2 years to start his own “consulting business.”

    1 year later the company lost 75% of their market share and was laying off people left and right. They are still afloat barely.

    After a couple years “consulting”, the CEO went to another company in 2023. He didn’t bounce fast enough and got caught on this one. He was fired 2 weeks ago and the company shut their doors except for a handful of staff to facilitate the firesale of the companies assets.



  • This is a really good example of how nutrient deficiencies can occur.

    If you look at the parsley you can see the cotyledons turning reddish and the true leaves are lime green. This is the beginning of nitrogen deficiency.

    What is causing the nitrogen deficiency - the fungus using all available N to break down organic matter in the potting soil.

    The solution, add in some more nitrogen to get the plants going and allow the fungus breakdown the organic matter faster. The after a few months when the organic matter is decomposed, the nutrients locked up in the fungus will be released for the plant to use.
