MONITORING PROGRAMS
We offer a variety of monitoring programs to meet the needs of our growers. These programs are designed to help growers keep abreast of nutritional needs in the plant and soil.
Our favorite tissue testing programs are the Monitor Programs MX (tissue only and soil NO3) and SV (tissue plus soil solution).
The MX program will let you know if the crop could be in trouble next week, SV programs give a prediction if the crop will be in trouble 2 or 3 weeks ahead of time and comes with a midseason nematode test.
Our newest monitoring program is for Alpha-Beta Acids testing on hop cones. Our newest instrument (HPLC) is on site and ready for in house testing. This great program can assist in weekly testing to ensure when your fields are ready for harvest!
Please contact the lab for prices and availability on MX, SV and other monitoring programs since they are dependent on crop and amount of tests required. For fee schedules listing the programs click HERE. For submission forms for this testing, click HERE.
