Plant Empowerment is heading back to Australia. On May 7, a full-day training session will take place in the Melbourne region, bringing together growers and industry professionals to dive into the principles of data-driven growing, organised in collaboration with Applied Horticultural Research (AHR) and Apex Greenhouses.
Building on results from 2025
Following a successful workshop in 2025, where participants rated the training 4.1 out of 5 and 76% said it exceeded expectations, Plant Empowerment returns to Australia with a new session focused on the fundamentals of plant balance.
The training will be hosted at Powerplants in Hallam, located in the greater Melbourne area. During the session, participants will explore how to create greenhouse conditions in which plants can actively regulate their own processes by balancing energy, climate and crop needs.

The program combines foundational theory with practical applications, covering topics such as climate control, plant activity, ventilation strategies and the use of data in decision-making. There will also be room for discussion, allowing growers to bring in their own challenges and learn from real-world cases.
Expert insights
The session will be led by Ton Habraken, Greenhouse Climate Expert and Plant Empowerment consultant, known for translating complex plant and climate interactions into practical strategies for growers.
