<p>Things to Remember</p>
<ul>
<li>If any seed drops on the table or floor do not pick it up unless you know for sure which seed it is.</li>
<li>When working next to other studnets also threshing seeds please leave enough space to avoid mixing seed.</li>
<li>If you are not sure about something, ask.</li>
</ul>
<p>Tools Required</p>
<ul>
<li>Tin Pan</li>
<li>Triangular Pour Pan</li>
<li>Stapler</li>
<li>Rubber Bands</li>
<li>Paper Clips</li>
<li>Sharpie</li>
<li>Envelopes</li>
</ul>

<p>Getting Started</p>
<ol>
<!-- Step 1 -->
<li>Gather all required tools in the threshing room.</li>
<!-- Step 2 -->
<li>Place the first group of heads near by.</li>
<!-- Step 3 -->
<li>Grab the first mesh bag from the group.</li>
<!-- Step 4 -->
<li>Remove the Delnet bag, containing the head(s), and tag from the mesh bag.</li>
<!-- Step 5 -->
<li>Open the Delnet bag over top of the tin pan.</li>
<ol type = "a">
<li>If the Delnet bag contains multiple heads see <a href = "#App-A">Appendix A</a>.</li>
</ol>
<img id = "t-step-5"src = "static/images/threshing/gs-step5-min.jpg"/>
<!-- Step 6 -->
<li>Dump the contents of the Delnet bag into the pan, discard the Delnet bag.</li>
<img src = "static/images/threshing/gs-step6-min.jpg"/>
<!-- Step 7 -->
<li>While wearing gloves, rub the seed off the head.</li>
<ol type = "a">
<li>Ensure the head is facing down over the pan.</li>
</ol>
<img src = "static/images/threshing/gs-step7-min.jpg"/>
<!-- Step 8 -->
<li>Examine the head for any remaining seed.</li>
<img src = "static/images/threshing/gs-step8-min.jpg"/>
<!-- Step 9 -->
<li>Pour the contents of the tin pan, carefully, into the triangular pour pan.</li>
<ol type = "a">
<li>Keep the tag with the seed at all times. When other heads are also being threshed it is easy to mix things up.</li>
</ol>
<img src = "static/images/threshing/gs-step9-min.jpg"/>
</ol>
<p>Using the Blower</p>
<ol>
<!-- Step 1 -->
<li>Move the pour pan to the blower.</li>
<!-- Step 2 -->
<li>Remove the tag from the pan and place it on the blower table.</li>
<!-- Step 3 -->
<li>Ensure the blower tube is empty and the mesh screen is free of debris.</li>
<!-- Step 4 -->
<li>Pour everything from the pan into the base of the blower tube.</li>
<img src = "static/images/threshing/b-step4-min.jpg"/>
<!-- Step 5 -->
<li>Place the pan on the table and insert the top portion of the blower tube into the base tube.</li>
<ol type = "a">
<li>The blower tubing is very fragile. Be careful when you are using it.</li>
</ol>
<img src = "static/images/threshing/b-step5-min.jpg"/>
<!-- Step 6 -->
<li>Lock the top piece of the blower tube in place by tightening the nut.</li>
<ol type = "a">
<li>The larger blower does not have this feature. When blowing you must hold this piece down.</li>
</ol>
<img src = "static/images/threshing/b-step6-min.jpg"/>
<!-- Step 7 -->
<li>Move the dust collector head over the blower tube.</li>
<ol type = "a">
<li>Do not touch the tube with the dust collector. Leave at least six inches to one foot between them.</li>
</ol>
<img src = "static/images/threshing/b-step7-min.jpg"/>
<!-- Step 8 -->
<li>Turn on the dust collector using the black switch by the door.</li>
<img id = "t-step-8" src = "static/images/threshing/b-step8.jpg"/>
<!-- Step 9 -->
<li>Turn the blower on by flipping the switch on the far left corner of the base.</li>
<!-- Step 10 -->
<li>Slowly increase the speed of the blower by moving the metal bar on the right side forward.</li>
<img src = "static/images/threshing/b-step10.jpg"/>
<!-- Step 11 -->
<li>When the top section of the blower tube is full of trash/chaff/empty hulls, slow down by moving the metal bar backward.</li>
<!-- Step 12 -->
<li>Turn the blower off.</li>
<!-- Step 13 -->
<li>Remove the top portion of the blower tube and empty the plant material into the triangular pour pan.</li>
<img src = "static/images/threshing/b-step13-min.jpg"/>
<!-- Step 14 -->
<li>Pick out five seeds.</li>
<ol type = "a">
<li>These will be a sample of the seeds in the pour pan.</li>
</ol>
<img src = "static/images/threshing/b-step14-min.jpg"/>
<!-- Step 15 -->
<li>Open each seed coat and look for a seed inside.</li>
<!-- Link to enlarge this one -->
<a href = "static/images/threshing/b-step15-min.jpg">
<img src = "static/images/threshing/b-step15-min.jpg"/>
</a>
<!-- Step 16 -->
<li>Follow either "a" or "b".</li>
<ol type = "a">
<li>If the sample contains no viable seed throw the material in the pour pan, into the organic trash and repeat <a href = "#t-step-8">steps 9 through 15</a>.</li>
<li>If the sample contains viable seed move on the step 17.</li>
</ol>
<!-- Step 17 -->
<li>Pour any remaining seed in the base tube back into the pour pan.</li>
<!-- Step 18 -->
<li>Move the pour pan containing the seed and tag back to the work table.</li>
</ol>
<p>Finishing Up</p>
<ol>
<!-- Step 1 -->
<li>Place an empty envelop on the table next to the tag.</li>
<img id = "t-step-1" src = "static/images/threshing/f-step1-min.jpg"/>
<!-- Step 2 -->
<li>Using the Sharpie write the following on the front of the envelope.</li>
<ol type = "a">
<li>Ames Number, Plot Number, Plant Number, and Field Notes (From the back of the tag).</li>
<li>"1 of _" is needed only if the amount of seed is too large for a single envelope.</li>
<li>See <a href = "#App-A">Appendix A</a> for multiple heads.</li>
</ol>
<a href = "static/images/threshing/f-step2a-min.jpg">
<img src = "static/images/threshing/f-step2a-min.jpg"/>
</a>
<img src = "static/images/threshing/f-step2b-min.jpg"/>
<!-- Step 3 -->
<li>Staple the tag to the envelope.</li>
<ol type = "a">
<li>The stape is placed at the bottom of the envelope and tag. If multiple envelopes are used staple the tag to the envelope marked as, "1 of _" or "Main Head".</li>
</ol>
<img src = "static/images/threshing/f-step3-min.jpg"/>
<!-- Step 4 -->
<li>Pour the seed into the envelope over the cleaned tin pan.</li>
<img src = "static/images/threshing/f-step4-min.jpg"/>
<!-- Step 5 -->
<li>Use a paper clip to secure the opening of the envelope(s).</li>
<ol type = "a">
<li>When multiple envelopes are needed, wrap a rubber band around them as well.</li>
</ol>
<img src = "static/images/threshing/f-step5a-min.jpg"/>
<img src = "static/images/threshing/f-step5b-min.jpg"/>
<!-- Step 6 -->
<li>Place the complete seed packets with the others for storage. Ask your supervisor how the envelopes should be ordered (by Ames #, plot #, etc.).</li>
<img src = "static/images/threshing/f-step6-min.jpg"/>
</ol>
<!-- Appendix A -->
<p id = "App-A">Appendix A - Multiple Heads</p>
<p class = "Appendix">Occasionally, a Delnet bag will contain multiple heads. If all of the heads in the bag are mixed, thresh all of the heads together and continue from <a href = "#t-step-5">step 6</a> of Getting Started. If the heads are separated in the Delnet bag, thresh them separately (<a href = "#t-step-5">step 6</a>). Also, keep the following in mind:
<br>
In addition to <a href = "#t-step-1">step 2</a> of Finishing Up.</p>
<ol>
<!-- Step 1 -->
<li>Write "Main Head" on the envelope containing the seed from the main head.</li>
<!-- Step 2 -->
<li>Write "Other Heads" on the envelope(s) containing the seed from the other heads.</li>
