Thank you. That could be one of the most important posts on this site. It is information that everyone with half a brain should have.

However I would like to see a bit more on it, like we are very short of selenium down here so I would very much appreciate it if you could add more to it.

But let me repeat, thank you very much.

great job Bro.

Jack, the world seems to be short on selenium. This is because as I understand it, we have leached the mineral out of the ground by not letting it rest properly. As well as over farming it. I'm also looking into other ways to get selenium into the ground as well as a good source for the family. As soon as i find something, you all will know.
