Great answer! You know, I had to read that post several times to completely understand it myself and it just left me with a headache. Maybe it was brought on by crappy weed. Yep, "I am just thinking I know but obviously do not".
I will wait now to be publicly chastised for fooling myself.

And in turn, I now have a headache. I'm not criticizing at all, I've found some mighty fine subs in JA, a Panama Red haogie being my favorite by a mile. The issue is in the, eh, preparation and conditions from farm to harvest that in the end either makes or breaks the final quality. I believe strongly in soil grown (I could talk for days on this) produce for my subs, but outdoor prepared Jamaican subs just can't quite match what can be prepared stateside under a roof. Sammiches.

If you are questioning the quality of Jamaican soil? Or if you think that natural bat guano does not suffice for your synthetics, with out being critical I would question your concept of quality! But enjoy!
[QUOTE=georgelenard;142918]I very carefully said that I'm a soil guy, I don't do synthetics of any kind. Thanks. And as to the soil in JA, it is probably the finest soil you can find. The issue comes down to controlling the environment, which you simply cannot do outdoors. I'm not going any further with this, as it's almost as bad as talking about route taxis (and this probably isn't the forum for this discussion anyhow). Have a good day.
