Finished my last powdery mildew ratings this week! These are from a 3-year #IPM study, and it looks like we’ve found some options for #organic #squash growers Cucurbit Coordinated Agricultural Project

Harvested my last Cucurbit Coordinated Agricultural Project #IPM squash trial today! Thank you to many in SmartLabAgritech members for your help. Next step: canning! 🎃

Exciting update! All NY State approvals are in, and the City of Geneva signed a contract with Massa Construction. So... Phase II at Parrott Hall is about to begin! It starts with a Pre-Construction meeting tomorrow, November 6. Work on site will begin shortly thereafter.
