it works and you can see it very well due to the contrasting hue.

KCTomato posted about a new battery-powered device to vibrate blossoms to make it easier to collect pollen. Also, to help with better fruit set, size and seed counts for us seed savers. Here- notjusttomatoes.proboards.com/thread/2182/pollinating-plants-increase-yield-seedsHere's the link for the tool- vegibee.com/I ordered the Economy model last week and received it yesterday. I took it out for a test spin after 5.30p and here's some pollen on my finger.   I forgot to add: Last week I had to go to Saginaw, so I stopped at Harbor Freight and picked up a Magnifier Headstrap to help with my tired eyes. It lists for $5, was on sale for $4 and I had a 25% off coupon=$3. Just what the Doctor ordered. Works well with my Tri-focals. www.harborfreight.com/magnifier-head-strap-with-lights-38896.html |
