I'm sure there are several folks on here who are interested. I sm interested and have done quite a bit of study on no-till farming techniques, which have many of the same concepts, only much more controlled in a farming application. The main problem I've had with this thread is not the questions or opposing views (which can always be expected with anything thats non-traditional), but it's the minute by minute updates on how things are going with your plots. Some updates and pics are nice, but when you wind up with 64-65 pages on a thread it becomes pretty much useless, because it's way too much to wade through if you are trying to find some useful info. It's a thread you started and you have the right to post as much as you want, but just remember when a thread starts getting too long it kind of defeats the purpose of getting out new info and new thoughts because most folks will not wade through that many pages to find something. I like threads where the main points are made pro and con, a few pics for a visual are helpful, and a few updates along the way to support the idea being presented. This will give folks the opportunity to jump in with a few questions as well. This keeps the info relatively concise and not too strung out. Just my two cents...
I agree with you about the long threads losing the audience sometimes. I usually try to start a new thread periodically just to start fresh and allow any folks who are interested to jump in. However, these threads are purposely meant to play out in real time….as the conditions play out week be week or day by day and as the field progresses. Folks follow along and ask questions along the way. It’s not really meant to be a thread where you start on page 1 and read through all 50 pages. It meant to be an on going discussion. Sometimes that runs into lots of pages.
