Talkin' bout yarn!
I had a brainstorm once. I decided I could save time and dollars by color
coding crosses with certain certain daylily pollens usin' yarn. This was not
entirely original thought since others were using colored paper clips for the same
purpose.
My problem likely was being given to excesses and cheap too. There were not
enough paper clip colors to code all the pollens I wanted to use. Hence the
yarn brainstorm.
By pod collection time, the yarns were all near the same color. The ones that
were different were colors too far from the code sheet to be identified. All
crosses so tagged on purple daylilies, were purple or black regardless of how
they started.
So goes life for slow thinkin' Southerners.
Smiles,
Bill Burleson
