Dear all,
I hope you all had relaxing holidays and I wish you a happy new year!
Unfortunately, we found thrips on one plant in the shared longday chamber #21.
The tray was removed and so far, there are no traces that any of the other plants has been infected yet. Therefore, all other plants can stay in the chamber for now.
Chamber #21 is now a quarantine chamber, so please follow these rules:
- DO NOT move plants out of the chamber, NEVER bring plants to another chamber. All plants may remain in chamber #21.
- Harvest and trash all plants in chamber #21 as soon as possible.
- Only enter if absolutely necessary.
- Leave all waste inside the chamber (take waste bins inside and leave them there).
- Leave dirty trays inside the chamber.
- DO NOT enter any other chamber on the same day once you entered chamber #21!
We will precisely monitor all plants in the chamber and inform you how we will proceed. Please contact me directly if you have any plants that will not be harvested/trashed soon. If you have any questions, feel
free to reach out to me.
Thank you all for the cooperation and I am very sorry for the inconvenience,
best
Paula
