The extended cold snap prevented some herbicide applications due to long frost nights.  Growers are completing herbicide applications the week of 5/14, should finish by early next week.  Ben Lear have lost 75% of winter color, Stevens about 50%.  All varieties have bud swell/elongation beginning along the edges, bed centers are mainly at white bud.  Beds planted in 2020 have red shoots emerging.  No insects swept.  Crop potential appears to be above average at this point.
