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 26^th 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.”
