Please talk with Hendrikus Schraven about this project of yours. He has done
a project like this on an earthen dam in Washington, and a ranch in one of
the western states. And was successful at shifting the plant species quite
quickly. I have some of his pictures showing results, and they are
spectacular.

I know the solution for thistle, which is to suck up the high nitrate levels
in the soils that allow the thistle to win. But I don't know the solutions
for the other plants. Sorry, that's going to take some reading to figure out
the reason THOSE plants are the ones that win, and maybe even some research.

but the conviction that what we are doing makes sense, no matter how things
turn out." -- Vaclav Havel, former President of the Czech Republic
