Wind Indicator

[Onetimeonly x-->]

Just something I've used for a long time to help me with wind direction. I take about six inches or so of dental floss and tie it to the bottom corner
of the stirrup and let it hang.The slightest breeze will move it. Works great keeps you from guessing.
Still never going to beat their nose we all know that!

[wheelie]

I use milkweed seeds, the stage that has that fluffy 'parachute' attached that float in the air, and spray a bit of doe in heat while in the container. Tells you where the wind is going away from you and feeds future monarch butterflies.

I have thought about setting out my wind flags . But the flak I would get from some people is not worth it .
By the way the dental floss really does work .

My old man would have shot you, Boris. Farmers hate milk weed and here you are planting them!

I second the talc powder,,works super effective even if you don't think there is a breeze.

I just check the computer every day and leave it at that.

Corn starch for me. I figure that if it is going to smell like something it might as well be corn.
