This would insure that the =lants re-flush fully from spending a week in a dark refrigerated =ontainer. We will spray, provide root stimulants, fertilize, =rrigate, etc. to push new blooms and foliage so Jeffrey doesn't ever =ave to see a bunch of twigs and sticks being =nloaded. The drawback, however, is that it =ill take a minimum of 3 weeks from the time we receive the container on =TX to turn the materials around to =SJ. Therefore, if we finalize the sales order =his week we would anticipate tagging next week, shipping to STX the =eek of June 5th (Memorial Day screws up the schedule for loading the =revious week), unload June 11th on STX, reload and ship to LS1 the week =f July 8th. You mentioned that LSJ =ould be getting a large order of Coconut palms shortly, so between that =nd running irrigation for the plants that we are providing, we won't be =ar apart on the required timeframe. EFTA_R1_00155712 EFTA01807431 There's =nly one sailing a week (Thurs.)- otherwise we would have more =ptions. Let me know if you have any questions =r require additional information.
