At the beginning of this segment temperature variation
is discussed. Can anyone expand on this a tad.

When speaking with "honey in the heart" Leon Hussey I mentioned
that it usually kind of sounds like millions or billions of
microbes being discussed.

What about the potential of trillions?
There seems to be plenty of room.

(Or in the case of someone creating a LeRoy machine
perhaps thousands of trillions in a fairly small machine.)

Can a foliar machine have a different set-up than a soil machine?
Different limits.

Leon said that it can run into the trillions right now.
He was discussing multiple 500 gallon machines at the time.

Naturally a LeRoy class machine might have temperature controls.
The question is if he does run into real serious microbe numbers
how much heat could be generated.
For tight temperature margins could it get to the point where a cooling cir=
cuit was needed
as well as the heater to get things rolling?

Know a fellow that is building a scale model when he has a
little time.

Now this mini LeRoy more than trouble
You see he stand 'bout one foot two ;-)
