Description
As a grower, you’re doing the optimum best year-round to create the best circumstances for your plants. This means choosing the right substrate, creating the optimum climate, giving them the right amount of water, adding the necessary amount of minerals, preventing pests and diseases and collecting and analyzing data of the climate and crop. At the same time growers are also busy with labor, energy, the equipment, selling their products, alarms and all other things that are constantly going on. In other words, growers have constantly a lot “on their mind”.
Within Plant Empowerment we have a lot of knowledge. First of all we have the green book with the basic principles of Plant Empowerment. Secondly we have the additional knowledge and experience from all Plant Empowerment experts of our partners and members. Together we cover all ‘growing’ topics you are dealing with in practice. But how do you implement all this integrated knowledge in practice? To help you as a grower with this, Plant Empowerment is launching a full-year program “Follow a Crop Cycle” 21st of March. When you’re ready to start the new cropcycle, you know: you’re going on a learning journey with us.
How do you make sure the plants are constantly happy? That’s what you’re going to learn in our new course. At the end the goal of Plant Empowerment is to support growers to grow healthy and sustainable crops.
This year-long program is designed to empower you with practical insights into implementing Plant Empowerment principles. The goal is simple yet profound: to support you in growing healthy and sustainable crops. We’re not just offering a course; we’re building a community where growers from all over the world are coming together to share experiences, challenges, and triumphs. In our five themes we’ll cover all challenges and possibilities during a crop cycle.
