A Gift You Can Really Use By Tim Hodson

Happy Cyber Monday!

In case you didn’t already know it, today is the busiest online shopping day of the year.

More than 122 million Americans are expected to spend more than $3.3 billion dollars today on online purchases for this year’s gift giving season according to Adobe Digital Insights. That’s a 9.4 percent increase compared to Cyber Monday 2015.

All totaled, U.S. consumers are predicted to spend more than $96 billion dollars this holiday season —$9 billion more than they spent last year.

As you tackle this year’s list of who has been naughty and who has been nice, I’ve got a suggestion for a gift that you can give to yourself and your co-workers — and it’s free.

It’s GPN’s Plant Health Management webinar on “The Proper Use of Plant Growth Regulators.”

The webinar will take place tomorrow afternoon (Nov. 29) at 2 p.m. eastern time. It will be presented by industry expert Roger Styer of Styer’s Horticultural Consulting, Inc.

During the one-hour presentation, Styer will discuss the basics of commonly used growth regulators, how to apply them, and how to adjust for vigor of crops and weather conditions.

He will also share key examples of different successful growth control techniques, from plugs to poinsettias, to help growers control crop growth properly.

Participants will have a chance to learn which growth regulator to use when, how much and how often and how to overcome overdoses.

If you are looking for a gift that will benefit your business for years to come, why not sign up today for tomorrow’s webinar?

Good luck with the rest of your holiday shopping. I hope you are successful in finding all of your online holiday purchases today.
