New England Greenhouse Floriculture Guide and Photo Library

A Management Guide for Insects, Diseases, Weeds and Growth Regulators

The New England Greenhouse Floriculture Guide (also referred to as the "Pest Management Guide") is a 250+ page publication that has been the reference-of-choice for hundreds of greenhouse growers throughout the Northeast since its inception. The manual presents biological, cultural and chemical management information for insects, diseases, weeds and plant growth regulation.

About the Guide
