tell yall what, here in east texas if it aint a cow, a bale of hay, or a pine tree today's young people don't know squat. i went to the local feed and seed to try to get a hand full of yellow dent corn, green beans, and purple hull peas so i can get some planter plates.
to late for the peas and beans; however the corn was another story. first, the young girl, high school age i guess, did not know what yellow dent was. second she came out with some white corn, still no yellow dent, third she came out with some sweet corn seed. at least she got the color right.
the owner came out and jumped in. he told her to go get that 10lb bag.. bingo, yellow dent. he explained to here about the three different bags of seeds that she had brought out.
but what was really sad, was that she did not know the difference between an open pollinated and a hybrid; however she could tell me what an F1 heifer is.
just chaps my back side.
