Yes, I too am interested in this conversion process, but am too scared to try. I dislike using chemicals of any type, although I understand most of it is wood pulp. I will leave this to those hybridizers who want to play with this stuff. I understand that the biggest problem with conversions besides killing the plant, is that if the plant makes it thru the conversion, the possibility of pollen sterility is high.

However, if anyone out there is interested, I would dearly love to see Polston's new diploid, 'Lemon Drop Lollipops' converted to a Tetra. Love, love, love this daylily.
