We went to the local Milkfest as a school field trip and part of the demonstration was feed. They gave everyone a few bits of corn and some cotton seed to handle (helped keep the city kids from destroying the bales they were sitting on
) Anyway, being the curious type that I am, I kept the cottonseed and germinated it.
Now I have no idea what to do with it. Can anyone tell me how (or if) I can grow a couple plants here? I have absolutely no clue about cotton plants other than what I've seen in pictures. If anyone can post some info, tips or links that would be great.
I usually plant oddball plants every year just to see how they work out or in the case of cotton, to help the kids understand where 90% of their clothes come from. Or to see if a plant could be a viable foodsource in the garden during times of need in the future.
Anyway, I really need some help to figure out what to do with these.
Thanks!
