Schedule of Activities at the Hydroponic Grower Training Workshop
Hydroponic Grower Training Workshop
Our workshops are scheduled frequently, at least once a month held at various grower's locations throughout the USA. While the classroom workshop material is consistent from location to location, different types of growing systems are in their greenhouse and will influence the available training. Plant management in a tomato house is extremely similar regardless of organic or hydroponic growing techniques, with the main difference in nutrient delivery and growing media. (which is primarily covered in the lecture part of the workshop). Lettuce and herb growers have quite different systems and plant management requirements compared to vine crop growers. All of these workshops will focus on hydroponic production, regardless of the greenhouse grower's actual system as listed in the below schedule.
