GET FAMILIAR WITH IN-HOUSE DISEASE TESTING
FROM THE FEBRUARY 2024 ISSUE OF GROWERTALKS MAGAZINE
WRITTEN BY NICK FLAX
NARRATED BY BILL CALKINS
EXCERPT: Since the naked eye cannot see bacteria or viral particles, test kits are really the only way to home in on exactly which pathogen you’re dealing with. The alternative is to send plant samples off to a lab equipped with similar, higher -resolution diagnostic tools, but this can be time-consuming and costly, depending on the lab. In the meantime, while you wait to hear testing results, the pathogen could be spreading further through your crops and cause more damage because you weren’t able to react sooner. If you had a test kit on-hand, however, this would give you a much better idea of how to appropriately manage your disease risk when you first saw symptoms and potentially head it off sooner.
