Suffoil-X Registered for Greenhouse Ornamental Uses

Flowers Canada is pleased to announce the recent registration of Suffoil-X (mineral oil 80%). This product has long been desired by growers seeking an efficacious and biocompatible solution to many pests of ornamental crops. Suffoil-X controls melybugs, spider mites, scales, thrips and whitefly nymphs and deters aphid feeding. Suffoil-X can be applied both as a foliar spray and a cutting dip. The label is available for review here.

Flowers Canada would like to thank Bioworks, Health Canada and Agriculture Canada's Pest Management Centre (PMC) for their efforts to register this product. Suffoil-X was selected as a priority for registration through the PMC in 2011!

Double Crop Soybean Growth Time Lapse

Video: Double Crop Soybean Growth Time Lapse

Got a minute? Watch out double crop soybeans go from seed to harvest! Double crops had a tough season this year. Wheat actually came off about a week early which is usually good because the double crop being seeded right after gets a head start over most years. However, it was very dry at planting causing the seeds to take a few weeks to emerge. Then a few frosts in early October killed the double crop off before it could fully mature.
