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.

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