Evil Genius Posted November 26, 2015 Hey Stu, there were a lot of posts about it on Facebook yesterday. So yeah, very likely. I am still looking for pics of the Fields collection for the Database, just to remember the collection how it is/was and if anyone has pics of their plants and Trichos, please let me know! 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Strontium Dawg Posted November 26, 2015 Bugger. I was planning a long road trip next year and fields was high up the list of "must visit" places. In a few years oliveton will be the new fields... 6 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Evil Genius Posted November 26, 2015 (edited) Nice! You have a whole lot of treasure on your hard drive, Rod. lol. Maybe you can make me a nice .rar or .zip on a filehoster or sth like that. Or via email. No matter what...I take what I can get. I want show the collection how it was, now that they are giving everything away. A lot of those plants are grown in collection and I am sure everyone would love to see the mother plants they originally came from.
