WHAT ARE THE ADVANTAGES OF A SEEDLINGS PRODUCTION CENTRE?
- It provides favorable growth conditions i.e., germination as well as growth.
- Better care for younger plants. It is easy to look after a production centre in a small area against pathogenic infections, pests and diseases and weeds.
- Levels out risks of low germination rates
- The centre helps in making more efficient use of land.
- It helps to improve crop uniformity in the field creating optimum conditions for extreme cold and hot temperatures during its growing stages.
- Nursery helps to reduce field management cost.
HOW TO GET YOUR SEEDLINGS WHEN YOU WANT THEM
LEAD TIMES:
Please allow the following growing periods when placing an order. MFK-Gardens Nursery believes a seedling grown at a slower, steady pace produces a sturdier, healthier crop plant. For this reason, orders need to be placed well in advance. A discounted ‘order price’ is offered to customers who confirm orders well in advance.
