The birds and the bees (continued)
Continue to thresh cucumbers for their seeds - which are turning out rather small. Not at all clear that they will ever grow. Plus the process is all a bit slow and messy so must find a better way to do this. Or maybe there isn't and that is why one pays so much for them.
Am now wondering how pampas grass breeds. They have big plumes which look like the male parts of maize flowers. But no seeds seem to be forthcoming. Nor does one have pampas grass seedlings popping up all over the place. OK so one can divide the roots but most plants can do better than that at a push.
Dark talk of microwaves back at the ranch.
