a randy oliver observation..
This exactly matches my experience, in which we typically obtain 80% mate
out in decent weather. In poor weather, perhaps 50%; in perfect weather
approaching 100%.
my comments..
these numbers pretty much coincides with what I experience here... at least in the spring/early summer time. after the heat of summer is past and as I work into the fall of the year I routinely begin rearing a few cell and the success rate on these can be more like 50%.
