"Just as exciting, our consultants in Colorado have analyzed the coming weather patterns for east central Colorado and determined that it would be feasible to plant one month ahead of schedule, on or about mid-April. Through careful analysis of these patterns we can effectively predict that April 14-15 should give us a couple of dry days to plant, followed by light surface snow that will melt and create good surface moisture that, mixed with the expected periodic light rains the rest of the month of April, should provide the perfect scenario for early planting and sprouting. It is expected that the conditions will be somewhat similar to the weather patterns of the last couple years."
Todd Ellison, one of the principles at 303 Farms, contracted by the Company to perform all of the ground work from seed to market, stated, "We are looking at a generally favorable scenario for planting early this season that will allow the plants good wind and 70-74 degree days to reach optimum early levels of growth and allow harvest to begin late July to early August, also a month or more ahead of schedule." Ellison added, "The wind coming towards the east in the day and changing to westward in the evening this time of year, also should allow for optimum early development of the plants, perhaps the most crucial time necessary to obtain maximum growth potential through maturity in under 120 days.""
