Frank,

Heat, Heat, and more Heat! They LOVE it HOT..... I grow mine in an
enclosed tank with a mix of incandescent lights and high energy
fluorescents. A mix of 50/50 peat sand works well for me. The temps get
pretty close to 100 F. in there.

Very shortly I will have a page on-line which has photos of the above
mentioned setup as well as LOTS of misc photos of CP. I will be adding the
finishing touches in the next few days. I also have a bunch of mutant vft
photos.

And for everyone who has been trying to get in touch with me, I am back
on-line and all the e-mail problems have been solved. It's great to be back.

Take care & keep on growing,

-Tom- Hayes
