Hot Water Seed Treatment Workshop – UMass Extension

This will be a hands-on workshop where growers can bring in their own seed for hot-water treatment using precision water baths and with the assistance of experienced extension vegetable plant pathologist, Meg McGrath, from Cornell University. Tomato, pepper, eggplant, and crucifer seeds are those most commonly treated but many others can be treated as well.
