Are You in Control?
Are you struggling with controlling the different plant diseases in your greenhouses? Do you have an effective disease management/control program for your crops?
Are you and your staff looking to increase your knowledge base to battle those diseases and grow healthier and more profitable plants?
We try to provide you with that kind of useful information in every issue of GPN to help you solve those types of problems and that is also the goal of our 2017 Plant Health Management webinar series that will kick off next month.
The first webinar on disease management is scheduled to take place Sept. 26, at 2 p.m. (EDT).
During the free, one-hour webinar, industry consultant Roger Styer will address “Helping Grower Identify, Correct and Prevent Common Disease Problems in Ornamentals.”
Styer is the president of Styer’s Horticultural Consulting. He has been helping growers across North America be more successful with all aspects of growing ornamentals for more than 30 years.
Diseases caused by fungi, bacteria or viruses can keep any grower awake at night. Not knowing what diseases you are dealing with on a particular crop can cause big losses before you know it.
In the webinar, Styer will cover the basic disease problems he finds in greenhouses around the country, how to basically identify what it is before you send in samples to a diagnostic lab, how to correct the disease problem and how to prevent problems in the future.
Styer also will look at how moisture management and humidity can help or hurt your control program, which crops tend to be indicators of that disease and what basic control methods can be applied.
The webinar is an excellent opportunity for you and your team to gain insight into your battle against greenhouse diseases.
As I already mentioned, the webinar is free, just click here to register.
And stay tuned to upcoming editions of GPN Weekly because we have additional plant health management webinars in the works for later this fall.
