I do not claim to know all there is to know about greenhouse plants.  I did have 19 greenhouses where the plants were started from seed through crop production.  I have dealt with seedling diseases through every greenhouse management problem, including white fly, as you can imagine.  All the tomatoes, cucumbers, bell peppers, lettuce, and zucchini were grown under soil-less greenhouse conditions.  I used the Hoagland solution and adjusted for each crop’s needs.  The solution was re-tested weekly and adjusted to the crop removal rates.

At Western Laboratories we are offering “The Problem Solving Package”.  It is Test #40.  Test #40 includes:

  • Soil-less media test
  • Nematode test
  • Disease tests

Our turnaround time is 4 days from when we receive your sample. If diseases need to be plated the disease part requires an additional 11 days, however the rest of the report will be released within the 4 day period.
