Several growers have now finished planting. Those that haven’t will be done soon. The most significant problem during planting was damage to some of the earlier plantings from frost. These fields have either been planted-over or replanted. Currently, there are no significant problems being reported. Recently, we have had a few calls about plants set out on Monday, June 3 showing some physical damage from environmental stresses. Some of the plant leaves turned a silvery/white colour and some of the weaker plants did not survive.
Planting Close to Being Done
