Follow the detailed instructions in this Tech Sheet to reap all the benefits of side-grafting: overcome disease and production-related issues, improve overall crop health, reduce or eliminate pesticide use, lengthen harvest duration, and significantly increase net income. The entire process from sowing of rootstock and scion varieties to final transplanting of grafted plants into greenhouse soil or soilless medium normally takes 6-8 weeks. The major advantage of side grafting is that this method is more forgiving of differing stem diameters than top grafting...
Follow the detailed instructions in this Tech Sheet to graft desirable fruiting tomato varieties to vigorous, disease-resistant tomato rootstocks as a cost-effective method for overcoming disease and production-related issues; improving overall crop health; reducing or eliminating the need for pesticide use; lengthening harvest duration; and significantly increasing net income. The entire process from sowing of rootstock and scion varieties to final transplanting of grafted plants into greenhouse soil or soilless media normally takes 6-8 weeks.

Common Tomato Pests, Diseases & Physiological Disorders | An Overview of Biotic & Abiotic Problems
An overview of Common Tomato Pests, Diseases & Physiological Disorders to help tomato growers avoid problems — or should they arise, to be better prepared to appropriately address them — in time. We provide a brief summary of the primary living (biotic) pathogens as well as nonliving (abiotic, or physiological) disorders that are common and/or pose the greatest threat, with additional resources for further reading and assistance.
Information for all stages of vegetable production, from planning and choosing varieties and site selection, to planting, cultivating, growing, harvest, and post-harvest marketing and preparation, from the vegetable experts at Johnny's Selected Seeds.
Visit our library of farming method, tool, accessory, and supply-specific information for assembly and instruction manuals, parts and cost calculators, comparison charts, guides and articles — an extensive set of resources made available by the Tool Research, Design, Development & Trialing Team at Johnny's Selected Seeds.
Learn what makes a variety good for growing in greenhouses, hoophouses, and poly tunnels from the research team at Johnny's. Details include which specific plant habit, vine, fruit, and disease resistance characteristics to look for when determining which cultivars to grow in the protected-culture setting, including our crop experts' recommendations for specific tomato, pepper, cucumber, eggplant, and lettuce types and varieties.
