High School Principal Newsletter December 2019.pdf

A lot has been going on in the greenhouse this semester. We started the year off learning about poinsettias. We learned how to pinch poinsettias leaves and to properly care for them. We also experimented with tomatoes in our grow towers. We found that they grow really fast, and just harvested our first batch of tomatoes. The greenhouse got its aquaponics system running this year. The fish in the system provide the nutrients for the plants to grow. We are currently growing lettuce in our aquaponics. A big problem in the greenhouse right now is thrips. Thrips are little bugs that feed off the leaves of the plants and can affect the crops. Thrips are really hard to get rid of and spread fast. To get rid of them we pretty much have to get rid of all the affected plants. Overall, I have gained a lot of valuable skills and problem solving techniques from Plant Science.
