I’d LOVE to get 1/2 inch. That would be so nice. We are supposed to have a chance for some later this week, but I’m not holding my breath.

Glad you got it though. I hope there is more for you soon. Pretty soon, the cotton won’t need rain. Those bolls have to dry out to make nice cotton. We had a friend once who grew brown cotton in his garden. Very odd.

I’d love it, too, if you got a half inch. Y’all need it badly. I won’t hold my breath but will keep all appendages crossed for luck that you get some this week.

I think the cotton here has finally stopped blooming. The bolls are easy to see on the plants when I go in and out the driveway, which runs between the two front fields.
But on the way home from the museum yesterday Hubby took back roads and there are a LOT of fields of cotton this year. Most of them still have a lot of blooms so they must have been planted later than our fields.

Brown cotton? That’s a new one on me.
