There’s nothing quite as frustrating as having some know-it-all tell you why your cucumbers aren’t getting bigger than pickles, or why your tomatoes look like tomatillos. But when that reason seems like some old wives tale that has no obvious logical basis in science, well, that’s just annoying.

Follow the above link for the whole article. I found it very interesting, hope you do too.
