Flowering Of Spring-Planted Greens, Elizabeth Maynard, Marian M. Rodriguez-Soto, Rebecca Koetz
Flowering Of Spring-Planted Greens, Elizabeth Maynard, Marian M. Rodriguez-Soto, Rebecca Koetz
Midwest Vegetable Trial Reports
Greens for salad or cooking are a significant part of the spring crop mix sold at Indiana farmers' markets. The harvest period for many spring-planted greens is shortened because they flower in response to environmental conditions. This paper reports on flowering response of two varieties of arugula, collards, mizuna, two types of mustard, and shungiku, planted in mid-April through May in northern Indiana.
High Tunnel Bell Pepper Spacing Trial, Bronwyn Aly
High Tunnel Bell Pepper Spacing Trial, Bronwyn Aly
Midwest Vegetable Trial Reports
The objective of this trial is to determine an optimum spacing for bell peppers grown in a high tunnel production system. Six different spacing treatments were evaluated in this trial. Results from this study suggest that tighter plant spacing increased yield per unit area (100 feet of linear row) but decreased the yield per plant.
High Tunnel Broccoli Cultivar Evaluations, Lewis Jett
High Tunnel Broccoli Cultivar Evaluations, Lewis Jett
Midwest Vegetable Trial Reports
Broccoli is a potentially profitable crop for high tunnel production. Updated information on yield and quality of new cultivars is important for producers making planting decisions. This evaluation of 11 cultivars was conducted within a high tunnel in Fall 2023.
2023 Evaluation Of Pumpkin Cultivars In West Virginia, Lewis Jett
2023 Evaluation Of Pumpkin Cultivars In West Virginia, Lewis Jett
Midwest Vegetable Trial Reports
Pumpkins are a popular, commercial vegetable crop in West Virginia. Each year, many new hybrid cultivars are released by commercial seed companies. In 2023, we trialed 16 cultivars. Pumpkins were grown using conventional tillage, and each cultivar was replicated 4 times. ‘Griffin’ ‘Justify’, ‘Hawk’, ‘Bellatrix’ and ‘Hermes’ produced high yields with both fruit count and average weight per pumpkin.
