any discussion of herbicides is limited to the cider press

I removed a thread today because people were talking about herbicides outside of the cider press.

Just a reminder, this site is for talking about the stuff i wanna talk about in the way i wanna talk about those things.  And one of the standards is that all horticultural discussion is organic or better - or it goes in the cider press.  

Quoting from
Concise Guide to Permies' Publishing Standards  which is WELL worth reading in whole.

Politics, religion, marijuana, GMOs, pesticides (and other toxic gick), justice, climate change, and other hot button subjects.  Sometimes, things like politics and spirituality are relevant to various aspects of permaculture. Or maybe someone wants to ask a question about their neighbor's use of herbicides. The problem is that people tend to have strong opinions on these topics. The discussion easily becomes divisive and argumentative, and people get defensive  and sometimes hostile. Plus, controversial topics attract trolls. The Permies solution for this is Cider Press.

Cider Press. The Cider Press is a restricted category of forums for Permies members who understand our publishing standards and know how to be nice. The requirements to post in Cider Press is to have apples and PIE (You can learn more about apples here, and about PIE here.)

The same publishing standards apply to Cider Press, with the added feature that staff can award apple cores. Apple cores means you lose apples! You can read more about apple cores and how to avoid them here.
