Hi Randall,

    Just what are you talking about? The symptom of an orange plant
means what??? Never heard of this problem before, nor seen it displayed
in any plants. Also, I can not fathom how baking soda and cooking oil
green a plant back up. Do your plants have something eating the roots
that this conncoction helps to control??? Is this the only problem
your plants face, turning orange, I mean? I'm starting to think these
mails are a joke and I hope people don't start killing their plants
following this advice. I'm not trying to be mean here, but I don't have
any idea as to what you're talking about.

Waiting for a clue,
Dave Evans
