OVERVIEW: Join us for our latest webinar, designed to help growers choose the right spinach varieties for every planting window. Rachel and Brenna will walk through seasonal slotting and highlight the best Johnny’s varieties for each slot to support strong performance year-round.
We’ll also cover key trait considerations—including smooth vs. semi-savoy leaf types, plant habit, and specialty types—to help you match varieties to your production goals.
Finally, we’ll provide a rundown of downy mildew: what the disease is, what “resistance” truly means, and how it shapes today’s breeding landscape and available variety options.
A Q&A session will follow the presentation, during which our presenters will answer audience questions via chat. We hope to see you there!
