        I wonder how you keep them from drying out? I always prime and
sometimes even these get dry by the time a frame is done. Maybe I'm too =
slow.
 
Hi Vince ,
 
We throw alot of water on the floor and keep the heat up to increase the =
humidity in the grafting room.  Also, as I graft, I keep the frame of =
grafted cups under a damp towel.  Even the cups that are waiting to be =
grafted into are kept under a damp towel.  As we walk the graft out to =
the cell builder, it is kept under the towel.  This also keeps the graft =
out of the other elements like snow.
