I have to go buy some full panty hose this year as I and my neighbors no
longer have any old hosiery laying around. Need the panty hose for tying
up winter squash and melons to their support fence in the garden. I hope
the $ store carries cheap hosiery. I've tried onion bags etc., but they
leave impressions on the soft developing skin of the fruit, slings made from
old rags don't expand with growth -- anyone have any other ideas?
