Optimizing Greenhouse Corn Production: What Is The Best Open Pollination Method?, Adam Leonberger, Robert Eddy, Daniel T. Hahn
Purdue Methods for Corn Growth
This document is one entry in a series of questions and answers originally posted to the Purdue University Department of Horticulture & Landscape Architecture’s Plant Growth Facility Web site (http://www.hort.purdue.edu/hort/facilities/greenhouse/CornMethod.shtml) regarding best practices for corn plant growth in a greenhouse. Controlled studies were conducted with the goals of optimizing growth and yield; developing standardized methodology using readily available commercial materials; and providing recommendations for both high-tech and low-tech facilities. Digital images showing treatment differences are included, as well as statistical analysis of data. A summary of recommendations; materials and methods description; and a reference list are available in separate documents.

Supersweet Sweet Corn Cultivar Evaluation For Northern Indiana, 2009, Elizabeth T. Maynard
Purdue Fruit and Vegetable Research Reports
Indiana growers harvested sweet corn for fresh market sales from 5,400 acres in 2008, with an average yield of 70 cwt/A (166 crates or 3.5 tons per acre) and total value of $11.7 million (USDA-NASS Indiana Agricultural Statistics, 2008-2009). Indiana ranks 17th among states for production of fresh market sweet corn. The 2007 USDA Ag Census reported 603 Indiana farms producing sweet corn for fresh markets and 51 farms selling to processors. Sweet corn fields for fresh market sales are located throughout the state. In northern Indiana, bicolor corn is most commonly grown. Varieties with improved eating quality are of …

Pumpkin Variety Performance With And Without Treatment For Powdery Mildew In Northern Indiana, 2009, Elizabeth T. Maynard
Pumpkin Variety Performance With And Without Treatment For Powdery Mildew In Northern Indiana, 2009, Elizabeth T. Maynard
Midwest Vegetable Trial Reports
Pumpkins for decorative use are grown on more than 4,000 acres in Indiana. Combined acreage in Indiana, Michigan, Illinois, and Ohio represents about a quarter of pumpkins grown for decorative use in the United States. Successful pumpkin production requires the use of cultivars that yield well and produce pumpkins of the size, shape, color, and quality demanded by the market. Genetic resistance to the fungal disease powdery mildew is present in some varieties. This trial was designed to evaluate performance of pumpkin varieties in northern Indiana with and without treatment for powdery mildew. The trial included eight jack-o-lantern size pumpkins, …

On-Farm Evaluation Of Tomato Cultivars For Disease Resistance, 2008, Elizabeth Maynard, Butch Zandstra, Dan Egel
On-Farm Evaluation Of Tomato Cultivars For Disease Resistance, 2008, Elizabeth Maynard, Butch Zandstra, Dan Egel
Purdue Fruit and Vegetable Research Reports
"Bacterial spot of tomatoes (Xanthomonas campestris pv. vesicatoria) causes lesions on leaves, stems and fruit. Under conditions of hot, humid, rainy weather, defoliation can result in a loss of yield. In addition, lesions on fruit result in a direct loss of marketability. This disease is managed primarily with applications of fixed copper bactericides, crop rotations, greenhouse sanitation, and healthy seed/transplants. Even in properly managed commercial fields, however, bacterial spot can cause yield losses. Although there are no varieties with complete resistance to bacterial spot, we report here the results of an on-farm trial that indicates some varieties may have partial …
