Guest guest Posted July 31, 2006 Report Share Posted July 31, 2006 rain ?? what's that ?? oh, yeah, I remember, drops of water falling from the sky. LOL I wish, we need rain here. would need to redo if it rained. sprinkling by hand I had lots of flour on some leaves and little on others so tried using a tea strainer to dust the plants which worked fine. now if they'll just hurry up and ripen !!!! wwjd <jtwigg wrote: hummmmmm... good to know.
