Cleco Farm
 
Here's a photo of the spring's cleco crop here in Colorado. I'm anticipating a fine harvest.



You, too, can grow a robust field of clecos like this. It's easy. Anyone can do this. All you have to do is order an RV-3B fuselage kit, make a few simple modifications, and when you attach the F-326 aft bottom fuselage skin to the fuselage frame - just this single skin - you'll have it.

You can tell when it's ready for harvest, as a certain percentage of these will turn a rich coppery color.

Mine have proseal all over them. How do I prevent proseal from damaging my harvest?

Bill Boyd 04-30-2017 05:35 PM

If you get proseal on them, they won't germinate :mad:

Bah. Just exercise them some and keep using them, it'll work the crud out.

Same here. 1,000 and I ran out on the two wings and tanks. Had to rob Peter to pay Paul and for the tanks.
