Transplant Production Approaches and Tomato Performance (2022)

Cary Martin, Utah State University

Description: Recent advances in indoor gardening technology have made it easier for the small-scale grower to start their own transplant plugs. This presentation compares the results of tomato transplant plugs grown in a greenhouse versus an indoor space with LED light technology. Both types of plugs were followed through an entire season and harvest results were compared. Starting one's own seed allows for increased flexibility on what, how and when plants are grown.
