I've said it before, and I'll say it again: most of the questions in the "General Growing" forum belong on "Newbie Central". And most (at least 1/2) of the stuff on "Advanced Techniques" should be in the "General Growing" section. The question is, is it better to cater to a bunch of "Newbies Gone Wild", or to actually weed out the bullshit and "Raise the Bar"? We, as contributors, can't do a damn thing about it - only the Rollitup admin staff can make things happen around here! They choose to keep the bar low by allowing the "Newbies Gone Wild" to establish the "Lowest Common Denominator", instead of creating a realistic goal of advanced learning through proper stages or levels. As long as the Admin Staff chooses to pursue this "Status Quo" there is really nothing we can do - except "Bitch about it!".
Perhaps, if the Admin Staff wanted to participate, we could talk about how, or why, things should be changed! That's just my $.02 worth!
