Plug Production: 288 plugs
Sowing/Media: Use a well-drained, disease-free, peat based plug medium with pH 6.0-6.2, EC <0.75mmhos. Cover seed with a thin layer of vermiculite, otherwise the seedlings will root into the vermiculite and make transplanting difficult.

Germination Stage 1:
(3-5 days)
Keep medium uniformly moist until seedlings are hooking above the covering, media temperature should be 68-72°F (20-22°C), keep light levels <1500 f.c.

Germination Stage 2:

Dry down slightly to avoid stretch, keep media temperature at 68-72°F (20-22°C), germination should be complete in 5-7 days.

Germination Stage 3:

Allow media to dry further between irrigations to improve rooting and control stretch, but avoid wilting. Media temperature can be dropped to 65-68°F (18-20°C), light levels should be <3000 f.c. Fertilize with 100-150ppm N from 15-5-15, 17-5-17 or 13-2-13, keep media pH at 6.2-6.5 no lower and EC <1.5mmhos.

Germination Stage 4:

Practice good wet/dry moisture cycle, media temperatures can be lowered to 60-65°F (15-18°C), keep light levels <3000 f.c. Fertilize with 100-150ppm N from 13-2-13 to help tone the seedlings.

Growth Regulators: Growth can be controlled naturally by good moisture management. If needed, use sprays of B-Nine (1500 – 2500 ppm), A-Rest (3 – 10 ppm), Bonzi (10 – 20 ppm), or Sumagic (2– 7 ppm) to control growth. It is best to run your own trials to avoid overdosing, as weather and cultural regimes can affect the requirements.

Growing On to Finish: Packs, 4” (10cm) pots
Media: Use a well-drained, disease free, peat-based growing mix with pH 6.2-6.5, EC 1.5mmhos

Temperatures: Temperatures for rooting out after transplant should be 65-68°F (18-20°C). These can be lowered to 62-65°F (16-18°C) for growing on.

Light: Light levels should be 3000 – 5000 f.c. as a guide.

Irrigation: Practice a good wet/dry moisture cycle, avoiding wilt.

Fertilizer: Feed 1–2 times per week with 150 – 200 ppm N from 15-5-15, 17-5-17, or 13-2-13.
Keep media pH 6.2 – 6.5, and media EC 1.5 – 1.75 mmhos.

Growth Regulators: Growth can be controlled naturally by good moisture management. Use sprays of B-Nine (2500 – 5000 ppm), Bonzi (15 – 30 ppm), or Sumagic (5 – 10 ppm) as needed. Drench with Bonzi (2 – 5 ppm) or Sumagic (1 – 2 ppm) when plants are up to size and flowering.

Pests: Aphids, Whitefly, Thrips, Spider mite, Leafminer

Diseases: Pythium, Botrytis, Leafspots (bacterial and Alternaria), bronzing or speckling on lower leaves is likely to be caused by media pH <6.0.
