MSU offers self-paced online greenhouse courses

Growers can now register for the summer session of Michigan State University Extension’s College of Knowledge. There are now five courses in the nationally-award winning series:
  1. Root Zone Management Course
  2. Biological Control for Greenhouse Growers
  3. (Spanish) Control Biologico para Cultivadores en Invernaderos
  4. Greenhouse and Horticultural Lighting
  5. New for summer ‘18 (Spanish) Iluminacion para Horti­cola y Invernaderos
These non-credit, pre-recorded online courses are intended for greenhouse and ornamental plant growers and others interested in learning about the fundamentals surrounding: pH and EC management, properties of growing media and their effects on plant nutrition, supplemental and photoperiodic lighting, and introductory biological control topics. The participants will have 3 months to complete the course materials at their own pace. Growers or other interested professionals can participate by signing up for $129 for each course until June 15, 2018. Students will have from June 1 through August 31, 2018, to complete four of the courses. Students taking the brand new Spanish Greenhouse and Horticultural Lighting Course (Iluminación para Hortícola y Invernaderos) will have access to the material from July 1 through September 30, 2018.
