Transplant production based upon micropropagation has advantages over transplant production that uses seeds or cuttings, with respect to genetic and phenotypic uniformity and scheduled year-round production of disease-free or pathogen-free transplants1.
Recent research has shown that the closed transplant production system requires considerably small amounts of electricity, water, fertilizer, CO) and pesticide to produce value-added transplants as scheduled with minimum release of environmental pollutants and minimum loss of transplants.

- The Economics of Growing Vegetable Transplants in A Greenhouse
W. Terry Kelley Greenhouse grown containerized transplants is an increasingly popular way to establish vegetable crops. Compared to field-grown transplants, greenhouse transplants have several advantages. They can be produced earlier and more uniformly than field-grown plants. Their growth can be controlled more easily through fertility and water m...
George E. Boyhan and Darbie M. Granberry The two transplant production systems used by Georgia transplant growers are (1) containerized production in protective structures (greenhouses, cold frames and hotbeds) and (2) in-ground transplant production in the open field (commonly referred to as field transplant production).
Stormy Sparks, Extension Entomologist Field grown transplants are subject to a variety of insect-related problems. These problems are compounded when producing transplants for sale, particularly if the transplants will be shipped out of Georgia, because regulations are involved. Contact the Georgia Department of Agriculture for information on speci...
Stanley Culpepper, Extension Weed Scientist Managing weeds is critical for successful green-house or field production of quality vegetable transplants. Weeds compete with seedling vegetables for light, nutrients, water and space. Weeds can also harbor harmful insects and diseases, including nematodes, that can severely damage the present or precedi...
Paul E. Sumner, Extension Engineer The basic purpose of a greenhouse is to provide a reliable enclosure in an environment favorable to plant growth.
Paul E. Sumner, Extension Engineer Greenhouse cooling has been improved with high ceiling construction and, throughout the house, mist systems that also reduce energy costs. Greenhouse designs that incorporate insect exclusion screening have reduced or eliminated insect problems. Ventilation systems that keep plants dry as well as cooling the green...
Greg Fonsah, Extension Economist Plants represent only a small portion of the total cost of growing vegetables. Healthy, disease free plants are necessary to produce good yields of high quality. Because of the benefits of using containerized transplants, more growers are considering growing their own transplants in greenhouses. Growers need to dete...
