Welcome to today’s daily kōrero!
Anyone can make the thread, first in first served. If you are here on a day and there’s no daily thread, feel free to create it!
Anyway, it’s just a chance to talk about your day, what you have planned, what you have done, etc.
So how’s it going?
What’s hi-cane?
It’s a spray that encourages the kiwifruit to bud and flower so the harvest is easier as all the vines fruit at about the same time. It has had a lot of hate due to its potential for waterway pollution and harm to animals, birds, and humans.
I can understand why the orchards use it, but it is pretty noxious.
I had no idea. That’s… Disturbing
Luckily it’s just a one-off spray, once a year in late winter before the growth starts.
