Excellent technical article on using the amount of water plants use daily as the amount of water they receive as irrigation. Most plants were same size as control, yet used less water, so plants were grouped according to water needs.

A Pest Managment Strategic Plan (PMSP) collaborative effort from the Southern Nursery Integrated Pest Management (SNIPM) working group that contains key pest profiles for insects, plant diseases, and weeds. There are scouting and monitoring techniques listed, cultural practices discussed, and beneficial insects included for preventing pests in field and container production of ornamentals. This is a revision of the 2011 PMSP funded by the Southern IPM Center, without whom this wonderful publication or SNIPM would not exist. No publisherfeatureFileLeBude et al. 2012.

Jane Stanley, of Saunders Brothers, Inc., measures leaching fractions in containers by weight using a scale, then uses that information to adjust irrigation run time. With little technological input ( a scale), Stanley, demonstrates the practical application and success of scheduling irrigation in a nursery.
