NewThis report provides research and extension results for trials conducted by the University of Georgia Vegetable Team and its collaborators in the 2024-2025 growing season. The goal of this project was to find potential ways to manage wild radish in seeded greens such as mustard, turnips, collards, and others. Wild radish, a member of the mustard family, has historically been recognized as a winter annual weed mainly infesting winter crops grown across the Southeast. Contributing authors include county and regional faculty as well as specialists from UGA’s horticulture, plant pathology, crop and soil sciences, and entomology departments. All research has been supported by the Georgia Commodity Commission for Vegetables.

Bell Pepper Breeding for Phytophthora Resistance
NewA comprehensive research strategy was created in our vegetable breeding program to meet the needs of bell pepper growers. Identifying potential resistant gene sources against Phytophthora capsica is one of those efforts. This report provides research and extension results for trials conducted by the University of Georgia Vegetable Team and its collaborators in the 2024-2025 growing season. Contributing authors include county and regional faculty as well as specialists from UGA’s horticulture, plant pathology, crop and soil sciences, and entomology departments. All research has been supported by the Georgia Commodity Commission for Vegetables.

NewThis research aims to compare sulfate of potash and muriate of potash in a plasticulture system because muriate of potash costs less per unit of K. There is relatively little research comparing sulfate of potash to muriate of potash in vegetable production systems. This research aims to compare sulfate of potash and muriate of potash in a plasticulture system. This report provides research and extension results for trials conducted by the University of Georgia Vegetable Team and its collaborators in the 2024-2025 growing season. All research has been supported by the Georgia Commodity Commission for Vegetables.

This report provides research and extension results for trials conducted by the University of Georgia Vegetable Team and its collaborators in the 2024-2025 growing season. Fresh-market pepper production continues to grow as consumer demand increases for specialty peppers. However, selecting the best variety can be challenging because yield potential and fruit dimensions vary widely among jalapeño, serrano, poblano, and banana types. Contributing authors include county and regional faculty as well as specialists from UGA’s horticulture, plant pathology, crop and soil sciences, and entomology departments. All research has been supported by the Georgia Commodity Commission for Vegetables.

NewThis report provides research and extension results for trials conducted by the University of Georgia Vegetable Team and its collaborators in the 2024-2025 growing season. The Tifton Vegetable Park (TVP) is the primary research farm at UGA-Tifton, where vegetable team faculty conduct vegetable trials in various disciplines. This research site is important for conducting high-quality research that cannot be performed in commercial vegetable production fields. Contributing authors include county and regional faculty as well as specialists from UGA’s horticulture, plant pathology, crop and soil sciences, and entomology departments. All research has been supported by the Georgia Commodity Commission for Vegetables.
