Thanks, it looks like the Kickstarter is going to work this year to get us some of the up-front funds we need to produce and package the seed, and I think it will definitely be a win-win for those who get the seed.

Lecce showed much less than average shoulder cracking in our field this summer.

I don't know what you exactly what you mean about Pledges bearing fruit. But, at the end of all kickstarter campaigns, kickstarter tries to run the credit or debit cards of the folks who pledged. Most go through on the first try, but some do not. Over the course of a week, most funds are collected from pledges.

Some pledges drop out at the last minute as well. So the number now, while a good approximation, is not final.

Then there is the issue of sending seeds. We always send seeds. They don't always get there. After a couple of tries, if they don't get there, we are forced to simply refund.
