GROWING GREENHOUSE VEGETABLE TRANSPLANTS Original Power Point Created by Myron K. Sellers Modified by Georgia Agricultural Education Curriculum Office June 2002

ADVANTAGES Early and uniform transplants. Healthier plants. Less transplant shock. Earlier harvest of vegetables.

CROPS GROWN FROM TRANSPLANTS Peppers Tomatoes Cabbage Broccoli Onion Watermelon Squash

GROWING THE TRANSPLANT

Seeds are direct seeded into a plastic tray filled with soil media.

Trays are placed on a t-rail system of benches.

Plants must be irrigated (water) Our greenhouse uses handheld irrigation system.

Cooling the greenhouse. Fans are used to exhaust hot air. The sidewalls of some greenhouses lower to allow warm air to escape.

Heating Gas-fired heaters are usually necessary to grow tomato, pepper, squash, and watermelon transplants.

Transplants are grown 4 to 6 weeks before planting in the field. We are responsible for the greenhouse plants before they go to the garden. We are responsible for the growing process from seeding to maturity.

Transplants will be taken out to Community Garden

Greenhouse Etiquette Do not play in greenhouse Be Safe Do not hurt plants Be Respectful Do not touch leaves unless instructed to do so Be Responsible Do not make a mess Be Respectful/responsible Do not water unless instructed to do so Be Responsible
