QED Connect Inc. Subsidiary
Emerald Med Farms
Prepares For First Marijuana
Harvest
MANCHESTER, NH – August 6, 2014
– InvestorsHub NewsWire -
Management of QED Connect Inc. (OTC Pink:
QEDN) announced today that their wholly owned subsidiary,
Emerald Med Farms Inc., is progressing into the harvesting phase of
their first marijuana crop. The process is expected to take up to
75 days to complete.
In conjunction with best
practices, the crops were planted in stages and have reached
various levels of maturity, allowing for parcels to develop
incrementally. This method enables the staff adequate time to
process plants as others come into full bloom. Additionally,
colas (buds) within individual plants may develop ahead of others.
Colas near the top of the plants can develop faster
than at the bottom. Once separated from bigger leaves, the
colas are broken down to an appropriate size to be dried and cured.
Finally, the colas are trimmed to remove any additional leaf and
stem material in preparation for distribution. For each plant or
parcel of plants, drying and curing can take up to two
weeks.
Current estimates are in line
with the company’s June, 4th announcement of yielding 3 to 4 pounds
of product per plant. This accounts for the “wet weight” of a fully
developed plant prior to trimming and curing. Once the harvest is
complete the company will update shareholders of the total
approximate yield of useable marijuana as well as preparations to
distribute the marijuana to their California approved Co Operative
of dispensaries.
Tom Makmann, President &
CEO of QED Connect, Inc., commented, “We are very excited with the
success Emerald Med Farms has experienced to date. The Medical
Marijuana industry continues to gain momentum as seen by a July
26th editorial in the New York Times,
“Repeal Prohibition, Again”.
Additionally, I am pleased to announce that we have received the
initial tranche of $250,000 in debt financing to be used as working
capital for Emerald. The funds will be re-paid solely by profits
generated through Emerald Med Farms and will be non-dilutive to
shareholders.”
