We need to move up from May to February to meet the work load demand and get optimum tree growth. We have added 4 tree racks and 3 wells. We need to start earlier in the year to take full advantage of the growth cycle of the trees. This will take more people and more time. For these reasons I would like to move from 16 to 30 people and from May to February.
