The Latest NE Greenhouse Floriculture Guide Available

JC Chong

An updated New England Greenhouse Floriculture Guide is now available. The guide is available in electronic (free) or print-on-demand ($35, plus tax and shipping) versions.

This is a reference manual for commercial greenhouse growers, containing information they’ll need to manage insects, mites, diseases and weeds, and to use plant growth regulators. In addition to lists of chemical and biological control options, topics also include pesticide safety, pollinator protection, OSHA communication standards, worker protection standards and organic certification.

This guide is a collaborative project by faculty and extension professionals at the land-grant universities of Connecticut, Maine, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, Rhode Island and Vermont. Shout-out to Rosa Raudales of the University of Connecticut who edited this guide. New England Floriculture, Inc. supported the production of this guide.
