RE: The four phases of GardenWeb'ing

I'm still in the sharing phase which I think I always will be. There is nothing I like better than having people over and giving them plants. Occasionally I check out the exchange page just to see if I have anything someone wants.

I also think I will always be in the learning asking stage. There is so much I don't know.

Hi
I'm far too opinianated to lurk . My favorite use of GW
is to visit the various specialized grow methods and start arguments lol have 3 going right now and 2 of those have actually changed my mind !!!
Every so often it's possible to have a real exchange but takes a lot of work lol
When I was very young my Uncle told me "There are only two ways to grow crops. The right way and the wrong way ." Still like "There's more than one way to skin a cattleya" Boy does GW prove that !!!
I'm sure there are MANY who wish I would lurk lol

There's a fifth phase, but I'll refrain from elaboration.

good one Tom.

garyfla-don't ever change

corrie-you can lurk but we know you're there :-)

BTW where did the word "lurk" come from? Is it like "frak" or "grok"?

RE: The four phases of GardenWeb'ing

Awwww- do you really want to know about the word lurk ?
Be careful what you request on this forum !

lurk- intransitive verb originates from Middle English
means to read communications on an electronic network without making one's presence known . There are other less attractive meanings but they do not apply here .

Oh, while lurking...I forget to tell you Tom; Thank you for the package. I am watching to see if it will grow. I will let you know if it does. Thank you.

In the Beginning - I lurked,
I tried to garden but soon became irked,
Then I asked and learned,
But all my efforts the 'maters spurned,
I shared my woes and that really worked!
Now other plants need help and, in the End - I lurked.....
