How big is Full size, Justin. Ours in the wild get up to 1-5#. Ten months is pretty fast.

Unreal weather here in the UP, mid march and temps are in the mid 60's. Been doing spring cleanup every evening
cleaned the garden up tonight so just for kicks I planted a few collard seeds, curious to see if they will grow this early
nights are still cold. Usually I plant the cold hardy stuff, like carrots, peas and cabbage etc in April with the stuff like cukes, peppers and tonatoes well into May
mullet:
They should be alright, Dana. Usually the Mustard green seeds do good early.

That sounds funny to me. We consider anything under 6000 a low elevation.
Yeah, I spent two winters skiing Aspen Mountain and two summers working on a ranch along the Frying Pan river at 7000 ft. I also spent a cold January in Leadville at 10,000 ft. It snowed on the 4th of July in Aspen and I had to use short growing season vegetables in my garden. Mountains around here in NC are more gentle and forgiving.

Grunt, where'd you live in Colo? I lived a year in Glenwood Springs and the first time I snow skied was Aspen Mountain. And then Snowmass and Sunlight. I spent a lot of time up in Rock Springs, Wyo in the crazy days of the late 70's.
