With the return of a cold and cloudy Spring, many growers are seeing stretching in their plants.  Stretching can be addressed with growth regulators, but there are environmental adjustments that can also be used.  All we have to do is looking at nature to find out why plants do not stretch outside like they do in the greenhouse.

With the cloudier and colder than normal Spring season, crop growth has been slow.  Although the lack of sun and corresponding cold temperatures are a major cause, there are other tips and cultural adjustments that can be used to help your crops grow.

In a tough market growers are looking for ways to save money.  One area where money can be saved is purchasing growing medium in compressed 3.8 cu. ft. bales vs. the 2.8 cu. ft. loose-fill bags.

PRO-MIX® MP ORGANIK MYCORRHIZAE™ is an approved-organic, multi-purpose growing medium that contains a mycorrhizal inoculum (Glomus intraradices). These microscopic fungi attach to and colonize root systems to benefit plants by increasing water and nutrient uptake (especially phosphorus, copper and zinc). This symbiotic relationship between fungi and plants results in a globally improved plant growth.
