Hail Netting in Hail Capital USA
Did you know that one of Colorado's titles is Hail Capital USA? From experience I know it is a fact. I've been working with a great company out of Italy for getting hail netting for the 2010 pumpkin season. From sad experience I learned to be a competitive giant pumpkin grower in Colorado you need to have hail netting. The hail netting I'm getting is unique in that the "threads" are clear which allows for a more strength and a tighter weave to keep hail from getting through, but it still lets light through. This particular netting provides a 14% shade which will help reduce heat stress during the sometimes hot summer days and will also reduce UV damage to the leaves. Denver's UV light is 21% higher than at sea level and that level or UV rays can make pumpkin leaves less productive and a little crispy as the season goes on.

Hi there!
I would like to burn a theme at this forum. There is such a nicey, called HYIP, or High Yield Investment Program. It reminds of ponzy-like structure, but in rare cases one may happen to meet a company that really pays up to 2% daily not on invested money, but from real profits.
For several years , I make money with the help of these programs.
I don't have problems with money now, but there are heights that must be conquered . I make 2G daily, and my first investment was 500 dollars only.
Right now, I'm very close at catching at last a guaranteed variant to make a sharp rise . Turn to my web site to get additional info.

Hi Jamie, I'm trying to grow big pumpkins down in Colorado Springs. Last year I was decimated by hail. Could you share with me the company that you are using to get hail netting? It sure is hard to locate around here.
Thanks,
