Plantaholics Anonymous - Next get together is on March 18th, 2012

How many days to go 

[charlie]

Hi,

The last get together was such a success that it was decided to plan regular get togethers every couple of months.

The next one is on March 18th, 2012 from 1p.m. until the end... at my place which is:
454 Edison Ave
Ottawa, ON
K1A 1T9
tel: 613-695-3598
It's in Westboro near Newport Pizza on Churchill. Edison is parallel to Churchill, turn on Ravenhill and we're the 2nd house on Edison Ave.

If I could get a RSVPs for those planning on attending and what you'll be bringing, that would be great!

Also, is there anyone that would like to present their tanks and share lessons learned? I'd love to have a show and tell...even if it's just pictures...it would be easy to view them on TV...we've got the equipment.

Thanks!
Sylvie

Well the auction is over & tons of planted associated items were snapped up, so let`s get together & share tips, experiences, ask questions, have a hands on tutorial on applying Vinyl as a background & some pictorial show & tell tank builds etc, I know PM is willing to show & tell his tank, how about you
Then there is always the food & beverage aspect , what are you bringing?

I am looking forward to it.  I will bring some kind of homemade appetizer/finger food type thing.

Looking forward to it! Not too far away now!

I'm going to bring my 2.5 gal for the demo, maybe some muffins & probably something else.
Although I don't use Co2, I would love to share my successes with the methods I use
If I get a chance to, I will print out some pics of my tanks to share as well.
Looking forward to it too!!

Hi Sylvie!
I would love some more moss. I got rid of a ton awhile back and now find myself in need again (of course). lol. Looking forward to the plant meeting!

Hi there,
not a problem, I can put a bunch aside for you...won't be enormous as someone else had asked for some but should be enough for both.

I'd love to hear about your CO2 experience as mine flopped. Also, it's always great to see pictures of someone else's tank.

Thanks,
Sylvie

Mind if I crash the party?

What could I bring?

I don`t think the plantanolics would object 

[charlie]

I`m bringing some chowmein & i`m hoping jetstream will make his signature fried rice if he is coming hmmm  can you confirm jetstream.

I will try to think of something to compliment those things!  Sounds so yummy 

[pm]

I can finally confirm that I can make it  .

As Errol suggested, I can do a slide show on my tank(s).  What format can I bring the pics in?  (hopefully just a usb drive with jpg pics on it).  I would classify myself as "intermediate" in the planted tank hobby now, so I can share some tips and tricks that our guru friends may have long forgotten 

As for food, I don't know yet.

SWEET! Looking forward to it! On a side note, anyone also bringing plants? I know the Auction wasn't too long ago but perhaps some plants for sale/swap at the meeting would be awesome! I liked the variety we had last time!

I'm looking for Echinodorus tenellus so if anyone has some, I'm first in line :-)

[touchofsky]

Maybe if people are looking for particular things, they could post a request such as the one Eric has posted above.

I'll be honest :p I don't know what I am looking for exactly but when I see it I'll want it! :p I think it'll be cool to bring trimmings to sell and swapping can be done if one already knows what one wants. Otherwise they could still be sold. Why compost perfectly fine plants? I guess the concern is packaging/bringing plants only to find no one wants it? If so I liked how we did it the other time where the user posts what he/she has available and what is being brought for sure and what will be brought only upon a PM being sent.

At the end of the day, it'll be a little bit of a trading session where we'll either acquire new plants that we've been eyeing for a while but not found, or never knew existed or help supply others with goodies I missed the auction but I remember being excited and making plans to buy plants that I saw on the list that I never knew were in these neck of the woods so I think if we could capture that either at the meeting (bring what you have and Surprise) or here (make a short listing of what you have available to bring).

On a separate note, Errol if you have some Erio. S. and L. Arcuata trimmings, I'd love some. Thanks . Thats all i had to say ;p
