Hi Sandy,
Use a tube of silicon house caulk and caulk the area around the line about
once a year. That helped the smell quite a bit for us.

We switched to n-methyl pip to be able to see tryptophan better. I guess
we can, but I'm not sure it was worth the price. N-methyl-pip lasts a
little longer on the sequencer, so it seemed to even out.

Weather inconsequential: Sunny and windy. Record-breaking temperatures
and my bulbs are all sprouting. It sure seems like spring to me--about
65--but we are supposed to have 1-2 inches of snow tommorrow!
