LETTERS TO THE EDITOR
February’s I’m a Fan Winner Announced
Matchmaking at an Indoor Gardening Expo
Darcie and her daughter
Anna, from Armstrong, British Columbia, are February’s
winners of Maximum Yield’s
I’m a fan contest. Darcie
says, “I started gardening
because my three-yearold daughter wanted to
grow food and she was so
dedicated to her garden all
summer. She was heartbroken that the garden
would be done after the
Anna
fall harvest so we picked
up your magazine at our plant shop and now she is growing
tomatoes, lettuce, peppers, strawberries, dragon fruit, lemon
trees and orange trees in our basement. Thank you for all of
the wonderful information; it has helped keep Anna’s hobby
going year-round.”

Editor’s Note: Thank you for the great response, Darcie, and
congratulations on winning Maximum Yield’s I’m a Fan contest. We hope you and Anna enjoy your $100 gift certificate at
your favorite indoor gardening shop, TLC Hydroponics and
Garden Supply.
I’m a Fan Grand Prize
Winner Announced
Congratulations to our 2013
Maximum Yield I’m a Fan
Grand Prize Winner. Steven R.
Van Vranken has received a
grand prize of $1,000 to be
spent at his favorite indoor
gardening shop, Indoor Garden
Depot in Vancouver, Washington. Steven says, “I have
post-traumatic stress disorder,
so I don’t get out much, but
when I do I find my way to the
Steven
grow store and when there’s a
new magazine available, it makes my day. I can’t believe it’s
free. Thank you.”
Six years ago, I went to a Maximum Yield indoor gardening show
in Orlando, Florida, and I saw this guy I had previously met on a
business trip two years before at Simply Hydroponics and Organics. We talked all night and had a great time together. We were
both instantly hooked as soon as we saw each other. I didn’t give
him my number that weekend because I thought the distance was
too much—he lived in Largo, Florida, and I lived four hours away
in Ft. Lauderdale, Florida, but that Sunday night I couldn’t stop
thinking about him. He called me at work on Monday morning
and I melted hearing his voice over the phone. I love you more
than words can describe, Shawn Patrick Gorman! Funny the twists
and turns life takes—never could I have imagined that “that guy”
would later be the father of our children and the love of my life. I
am very, very happy that I decided to go to that show. I have never
been happier, I am blessed for having him in my life.

Great article on ozone generators (“Ozone: A Growroom Super
Tool,” January 2014). I have seen them advertised in the magazine before and thought they would be a good thing to have, I
just didn’t really know exactly what they did or how they worked.
