• Unpack and space out key to maintain plant quality
• Light intensity <4,000 Ftc – High light => flower induction!
• Keep off the floor – disease transmission, root development
• Water to drip [~1400 g]
• Keep night temperatures as low as possible
• Avoid high RH ‘dead air’ A

- 3. Extended Plug Holding >7 days • Light intensity <4,000 Ftc – High light => flower induction! • Water to 1-drip [~1400 g] • Fertilize with 50-75 ppm N + micro-P or 0-7-5+micros 2-3x per week • Avoid high RH ‘dead air’ • Keep night temperatures as low as possible • Consult with producer on ‘last spray’ – apply Thielaviopsis controls • Apply PGRs when planting during high temp periods
- 4. Prior to Transplanting • Thoroughly clean production area • Avoid high temperature and RH stress conditions during transplant • Prior to planting, fertilize with NH4 based fertilizer [20-10-20 @200+ppm] • Add 50-100 ppm B if >90% nighttime RH conditions exist • Provide full irrigation [~1500g] to fully load soil ball with fertilizer • Apply fungicide drenches and foliar sprays to protect plants
- 5. After Transplanting • Water-in to firm soil around plug! Don’t saturate! • Rapidly move into production area • Apply light irrigation to settle plugs Don’t saturate! • Maintain soil below plug at a L4 to help draw down the roots • Avoid a perched water table at bottom of container prior to roots down • By 7 DAT, roots should be at bottom of container • Resume full irrigation cycle of L4+ -> L2 • Apply 50-100 ppm N with every watering if no slow-release fertilizer
