Correction

In one of my most recent posts I misinterpreted what my Papaw said regarding the blooming process.  Uncle Powell read the blog and sent an email with correct information.  It's wonderful to have relatives that know what's going on.  The "square" Papaw referenced actually refers to the triangular shaped growth that produces the bloom.  The remaining plants are COVERED in those little triangles.  It is exciting to walk outside and see new blooms.

Dad will bring Papaw this Saturday for a visit.  This is a man who is familiar with cotton by the acre.  Our little plot might seems pitiful.  I'm sure he will be gracious as he looks over the plants and makes suggestions.
Uncle Powell will also visit on Saturday.  He and his long time lady friend are coming in to town for the Peach Festival.  He should be able to identify the problem with the two plants that are covered in what appear to be tiny black eggs.
