This aspect of the project will finalize the PPO through the vegetative stages and draft the PPO for the flowering and fruiting stages. This should result in the release of the PPO Version 1 that can be tested Дкк including the application of the prototype to the appropriate USA-NPN plant phenology datasets Дкк and refined in future community efforts.
