Products & Tips for Successful Production

Many operations are expanding to include vegetable plants and herbs to diversify their offerings. Pre-finished containers of fruiting vegetables and herb plants can be produced along with and complementary to spring and summer ornamental portfolios. Fruiting vegetables such as tomatoes and peppers, and herbs such as basil and rosemary, are popular favorites and well-suited for patio containers or garden transplants.

Products for Vegetable Production

There are several Syngenta products registered to help protect vegetable and herb plants grown for resale in the retail market. Each has demonstrated effective control of many common diseases and insects that can affect vegetable production. Please consult the respective labels for specific directions on rates, use applications and labeled crops.

Beneficial Compatibility

Beneficial insects are often used to control insect pests during vegetable production. Knowing whether a chemical product is compatible is critical for a successful program and saves time, resources and labor. The compatibility of the following insecticides and BCAs have been tested to help you avoid trial and error.

Common Insect & Disease Problems

While new vegetable varieties are often bred and screened for resistance to certain diseases, it is still important to scout and be aware of common problems such as leaf spots and mildews, as well as pests like two-spotted spider mites and whiteflies (Bemisia and Trialeurodes spp.). Identification should always be confirmed through a commercial or state diagnostic lab.
