LOL, on the Ithaca-Gro. You are blessed with manure, we miss it. PS - I keep wearing my ratty old tshirts. I you haven’t tried it the twist ties (green) that you find on a reel at the dollar store are wonderful. You get a reel with a cutter and a spare coil for a buck. Cut to any length. We use and reuse these and they work great.
I have one of those spools of twist ties, but I find them too ‘sharp’ to use for tomato and pepper stems. I don’t want anyone getting cut if we have a really windy day.
What do you use them for?
