Got to vote that down.....doesn't appear they own much of the common..hmmm I wonder why? They are good at raising money and paying themselves but the return to shareholders is a bit light imo. They have to prove to me that the cash generated by the rental of the greenhouses will actually go back to shareholders rather than to themselves.

Even more concerning were the details of the related party transactions. Always knew that McKowen had pull at TURV but this is a bit over the top.
