Re: HYB: Dry Pollen


From: "J.F. Hensler" <hensler@povn.com>


Just a thought on the "dry pollen" thing......

When I was very young, we'd "rehydrate" bread that had gotten dry by putting a couple of slices of fresh apple in the breadbox overnight. 

It might be worth a try to enclose a slice of apple and the dried anthers (not touching) in a plastic bag overnight. The extra moisture couldn't hurt but would anyone venture a guess whether the gasses in the apple might have any unforseen effects on the pollen?
