2017 Trials Programme

General Comments

Very difficult season – frosts, drought, gales, heat wave, thunderstorms etc.

Owing to hot June many trials already cropped therefore not so much to see as last year.

Also has a few propagation issues!

Foliage area cleared and being cleaned up ready for a new planting in autumn.

Last year of current funding therefore planning for 2018 and beyond – please have your say!

Ongoing Fusarium trials

Haygrove tunnel inoculated with Fusarium to be a permanent trial site.

In conjunction with AHDB cross sector. Fusarium trial led by Warwick Uni.

Tunnel inoculated early week 27 and then planted up at the end of that week.

Fusarium symptoms started to show up 3 weeks later.

Inoculating and planting up the tunnel

The first signs of infection

Page 12


Veronica

Overwintered crop and new planting in week 18.

Overwintered crop produced first flush in week 22 to 24 and second flush in week 31.

Week 18 planting cropped in week 28 to 30.

Very good quality stems from first flush.

BUT narrow window of production so would need to look at extending the cropping period.

First flush from overwintered crop

Ornamental Grasses Looking at a wide range of varieties and

cultivars including Panicum, Bromus, Sorghum, Stipia and Setaria.

Numerous planting dates from week 16 to 30. Very vigorous growth and prolific

production of “flower” heads. A lot of interest from the market place but

now needs to be taken on commercially.

Page 13


Ornamental grasses

Scabious Looking at cutting raised Scabious from

Danziger and HilverdaKooij. Wide range of very vibrant colours. Planted in wk 18 indoors and wk 21 outdoors. Had to be pinched twice this year owing to the

hot weather in June. Danziger started flowering in week 28 and

HilverdaKooij in week 30. Big differences between the varieties. Good vase life.

Cut flower Hydroponics workLyndon Mason, CFC

The National Cut Flower Centre

AHDB Horticulture Project PO 020

The development of an experimental deep pool hydroponics system to investigate its potential for

cut flowers

Summary of CFC hydroponic trials 2015 to 2017

Deep and shallow pool systems trialled in 2015 and 2016 at J A Collison & Sons.

Vertical aeroponics system at J A Collison & Sons in 2016.

Clay pellet system in tulip pin trays in 2016.

Clay pellets in shallow pool system in 2017.

Phytoponics deep water system in 2017 .

Ebb and flood production in modules in 2017.

Trial deep pool hydroponic facility

Page 16


Summary of 2015 trials While it is a factor to consider, the nutrient recipe was less important than initially thought.

pH range is important to ensure the correct nutrient availability though.

A wide range of flower crops grew well in the system including, aster, chrysanthemum, lisianthus and statice, lettuce also thrived.

The most important single factor for column stocks was a high water oxygen content and this was incorporated at the start of the 2016 trials.

First 2016 planting

Flowering eight weeks later

Page 17


A living graph

Summary of deep pool system Probably taken the system as far as we can and now needs a grower to take it on board and develop it further.

High levels of oxygen are crucial.

An engineering solution is required for issues of support for each float.

With some modifications, deep pool hydroponics appears suitable for a wide range of cut flower species.

The cut flower study tour to IsraelLyndon Mason, CFC

The National Cut Flower Centre

Report on the study tour to Israel

9th to 13th January 2017

Why Israel? At last years CFC Open Day a number of new products from Danzigergenerated interest.

These included caryopteris, scabious, solidago and veronica.

A number of growers requested a trip to see commercial production of these crops.

I have good contacts in Israel so with the help of AHDB Horticulture (who funded the organisation time and internal transport) a trip was organised for January 2017.

Agenda Day 1. Fly from Luton to Tel Aviv.

Day 2. Visit the main Danziger breeding and propagation area, before grower visits mainly looking at scabious.

Day 3. Grower visits to look at commercial production of anemone, caryopteris, craspedia, gypsophila, ornithogalum, scabious and veronica.

Day 4. Visits with Agridera to look at sunflowers then fly home in the evening.

Summary Most production outdoors or in polytunnels.

Israeli season complements UK season as most production is during winter and early spring.

Most nurseries visited were small to medium family businesses.

Small home market with most exported mainly via Dutch auction.

Little automation with low level of sophistication in the packing facilities.

All crops sub‐irrigated mainly using desalinated water. (Almost hydroponic production).

Open Day

Other Information

INTRODUCTION

This has been one of the most difficult seasons that I can remember for the CFC. As most growers will be aware the weather has thrown everything at us, including frosts in late April, a spring drought, gales in early June (that ripped off one of the tunnel covers), heat wave in late June and the torrential rain plus thunderstorms in July. Owing to having to confirm the date a long way in advance it is always difficult to ensure the maximum amount of trials in flower for growers to view on the Open Day. This year with the weather conspiring against us a large number of the trials have already been harvested including Gypsophila, Solidago, Veronica, annual Dianthus, Ammi, Delphinium and many of the grasses.

However there will still be a number of trials in flower including Alstroemeria, Zinnia, Gomphrena, late planted grasses, Scabious, Craspedia and Helipterum.

This year is also a transition year owing to it being the final year of the current round of AHDB funding. In anticipation of a new autumn planting of hardy foliage we have cleared the older planting and will now clean up any perennial weeds. In conjunction with the Warwick University AHDB funded cross sector Fusarium project we have infected the Haygrove tunnel with lab cultured Fusarium. This will be used as a permanent site for Fusarium trials on column stocks (Mathiola) and this year it has been planted with a late crop of stocks to test both the pathogenicity of the inoculum and also the evenness of spread throughout the tunnel.

The CFC Management Group are now looking at developing a new programme of trials for 2018 onwards and would welcome input from the wider industry. The provisional plan is to progress Fusarium control trials in the Haygrove tunnel, develop herbicide trials to fill gaps in the grower’s armoury, reduce the new product development trials (NPD) and develop trials that address other topical issues such as P&D. Please let us have your views on what trials you would like to see the CFC develop in the future.

ROCOCO RANUNCULUS

Purpose of trial:- to examine the market potential of a new breeding line of Ranunculus.

Plant supplier:- Plants for Europe Ltd.

Varieties:- ‘Rococo’.

Planting density:- 12 plants per sq/m.

Planting date:- Week 42 2016 and tunnel cover removed for the winter in week 45. Tunnel recovered in week 14 2017.

Harvesting Date:- From week 17 onwards.

Results / Observations to date:- An interesting new range of Ranunculus with strong tall stems and a different flower form.

Page 35

ORNAMENTAL GRASSES (outdoors and under protection)

Purpose of trial:- to investigate the possibility of using a wide range of ornamental grasses for use as fillers.

Seed supplier:- EconSeeds and Chiltern Seeds.

Varieties:- Panicum miliaceum ‘Violaceum’ & Panicum elegans ‘Sprinkles’, Sorghum nigrum, Bromus secalinus & Bromus macrostachys, Setaria italica ‘Max’ & Setaria pumila (glauca) and Eragrostis elegans.

Planting density:- 25 plants per sq/m and direct seeded in 3 rows per metre wide bed.

Planting date:- Week 14 direct seeded and plugs week 18, 25 and 30 indoors and week 18 & 25 outdoors.

Harvesting Date:- First planting flowering in week 28 and week 25 planting still cropping by the time of the Open day.

Results / Observations to date:- Very varied "flower" head form with some showing real promise. Seem very easy to grow and there is a lot of interest from the packers and supermarkets.

Page 36

ONGOING FUSARIUM TRIALS IN THE HAYGROVE TUNNEL

Purpose of trial:- to infect the soil with Fusarium to provide a permanent site for ongoing trials to investigate the control of Fusarium in column stocks. This year it has been planted with stocks to determine the pathogenicity and distribution of the disease.

Plant supplier:- Florensis and Stars Plants.

Varieties:- ‘Centum’, ‘Anytime’ and ‘Mathilda’ (also planted a couple of plots of brassica and lisianthus).

Planting density:- 64 plants per sq/m.

Planting date:- week 27 (Fusarium inoculum applied earlier the same week).

Harvesting Date:- N/A

Results / Observations to date:- Symptoms of Fusarium started to show up three weeks after planting and as would be expected there are differences in varietal susceptibility. Although in a couple more weeks it would be anticipated that most areas of the tunnel will be showing signs of Fusarium. This will ensure that there is a continuing source of inoculum for ongoing trials in conjunction with Warwick University who are leading the cross sector Fusarium project (FV POBOF 452).

Page 37

SCABIOUS

Purpose of trial:- to look at a new range of cutting raised Scabious.

Plant supplier:- Danziger and HilverdaKooij.

Varieties:- Scabious scoop series from Danziger i.e. ‘Marshmallow’, ‘Cotton Candy’, ‘Lavender’, ‘Blackberry’, ‘Raspberry’, ‘Vanilla’ and ‘Cherry Vanilla’. From HilverdaKooij, ‘Corneille’, ‘Gauguin’, ‘Goya’, ‘Matisee’, ‘Munch’, ‘Murillo’, ‘Picasso’, ‘Ribera’, ‘Roya’ and ‘Saura’.

Planting density:- 8 plants per sq/m in 2 rows per bed.

Planting date:- week 17 indoors and week 21 outdoors.

Harvesting Date:- first Danziger flowers in week 27 and HilverdaKooij in week 29.

Results / Observations to date:- Crop does not seem to be as vigorous as last year but they did have to be stopped twice owing to the June heat causing premature budding.

Page 38

ALSTROEMERIA

Purpose of trial:- To demonstrate and determine the viability of a seasonal crop of Alstroemeria both outdoors and under protection using older varieties which do not have royalties charged on them.

Plant suppliers:- Parigo

Varieties:- Alstroemeria ‘Dana’, ‘Flaming Star’, ‘Apollo’, ‘Pink Sensation’, ‘Nina’, ‘Bonanza’, ‘Avanti’, ‘Orange Supreme’, ‘Friendship’, ‘Tanya’, ‘Bonanza’, ‘Golden Delight’ and ‘Candy’.

Planting density:- 5 per sq/m.

Planting date:- Week 22 under protection and week 23 outside in 2014.

Harvesting Date:- This year the main flush was from week 20 to 24 then the heat wave in June brought on dormancy. A new flush then commenced from week 28 onwards

Results / Observations to date:- Again this crop has produced a lot of long, high quality stems but in year 4 the crop is now showing a reduction in quality. The weather this year has not been ideal for Alstroemeria, especially the excessive heat in June.

Page 39

VERONICA

Purpose of trial:- Part of the New Product Development (NPD) 2017 trials.

Plant supplier:- Danziger.

Varieties:- Veronica ‘Skyler blue’, ‘Skyler white’ and ‘Skyler pink’.

Planting density:- 25 per sq/m

Planting date:- Overwintered from 2016 and new planting in Week 18

Harvesting Date:- First flush from overwintered crop in week 22 to 24 then second flush week 31. Week 18 planting cropped week 28 to 30.

Results / Observations to date:- the trial has produced a large number of good long, strong stems with a long flower spike. However it has a small window of production so we would need to look at how to extend the cropping period to make it more interesting to UK growers.

Page 40

ANNUAL DIANTHUS

Purpose of trial:- to look at the potential of the annual Dianthus range from Dumen orange.

Plant supplier:- Dumen orange.

Varieties:- Dianthus ‘Trigreen 323512’, ‘Barberatus Verde’, ‘Cerise’, ‘Rose’, ‘Burgundy’ and ‘Snow’, 2013 MSFG 1 and 2014 MSB 2.

Planting date:- Delivered week 16, potted on and planted week 18.

Harvesting Date:- Harvested week 28 to 31.

Results / Observations to date:- Produced a large number of stems but some were on the short side. Wide range of colours but growers would need to assess the merits of these compared to others currently available from other propagators. A rust and ring spot spray programme is required to keep them clean.

Page 41

“OTHERS”

Other small trials included, Helipterum, Solidago, Caryopteris, Ammi, Lobelia, Gomphrena, Daucus, Eremurus, Salvia and Gypsophila.

Page 42

LILY ALTERNATIVE GROWING MEDIA TRIAL

Purpose of trial:- Bulrush funded trial to investigate the use of anaerobic digestate (AD) mixes for the production of boxed lilies.

Varieties:- ‘Santander’ (16/18).

Treatments:- Three AD mixes from Bulrush and two from Lincoln Uni.

Planting date:- Week 21 and cold stored for 4 weeks before being stood out into Pro-tech number 3 tunnel in week 25. Second planting in week 26, cold stored for 3 weeks and stood out in week 29.

Harvesting Date:- Not yet harvested.

Results / Observations to date:- Too early to make any firm observations but there do seem to be some differences showing up between the treatments.
