Gene Function in Eukaryotes The recombinant DNA techniques discussed in the preceding sections provide powerful approaches to the isolation and detailed characterization of the genes of eukaryotic cells.
It took a couple of hours and I let it dry for almost 2 days. The reason for the extra dry day was due to all the rain we had prior to cleaning. The deck without much stain for protection had a lot of moisture absorbed already prior to cleaning. One other thing, I used a Toro Leaf Blower to clear off the spinners and loose debris prior to washing.
I do a lot of stain work and I would wait three to four weeks if possible to stain after purchase. Keep in a dry, weather proof area if possible-a garage, shed or workshop. If you have to keep the lumber outside, elevate it on some 4 x 4 runners and expose it on clear days. one month minimum dry time is recommended. That said, I'd wait as long as the painting season permits. If you have three months before it will get cold down there, then wait until then. It's important to have three good, consecutive dry days before applying the stain when ultimately decide to do it.
