Just start the seed early inside and bring the pot in as it gets too cold, cotton is self pollinating so you only need one. It is a great experiance to try.Erin Curryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07666485705419340583noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-370031385579008097.post-33265031046798598492008-11-21T08:48:00.000-05:002008-11-21T08:48:00.000-05:00Erin - your spinning skills are most impressive - ...Erin - your spinning skills are most impressive - very fine work!
