Just a note...from Iowa
List,
Those of you who know me knows my 724 handy fruit split...thru the
stem in the meatiest part of the fruit ....6 days ago..treating with
captan...things appear to be in contol and still growing....not ahuge
fruit but HEY IT"S ME!!! LOL!!
What I wanted to say ..over the last 8 years ..this is a first....We
got about 1" of rain.. yesterday....today .......the whole fruit is
etched with hundreds of those little splits....and the whole thing is
leaking...EVERYWHERE!!! I've seen the netting before..never so
fast..(less then 24 hours..) the whole fruit...and WOW lots and lots of
fluid....each little split...EVERYWHERE!! OK OK you get my point....
Anyway all this thru a stem that has officially been cut in half!!
These things amaze me more each year!!
