Bill, thank you for the insights. I hope the Zett's YP are 2023 as I was on their list to get some for several months and they said they wouldn't ship until the reached this size. It seem that almost everyone in the northeast struggled with spawns and timing this year. The heat, followed by a hard frost, killed as much as 100% of the blossoms on some grape varieties and certainly disrupted SMB spawn (according to Zett's).

Local hatcheries say they will have YP in Sept. but none of the NYS approved hatcheries think they will have SMB. PS will be harder to get anyway, so waiting is no big deal.
