New Growers Seminar
July 14, 2015Desert truffles
July 14, 2015Unfortunately because of the heavy snowfall in January the growers’ seminar had to be cancelled, so we want to apologise to all of the people who were planning to attend. The event is for everyone and anyone who has an interest in truffles and truffle cultivation. The day consists of a fascinating presentation covering all aspects of truffle growing and plenty of time to ask any questions that you might have.
We have re-scheduled this now for the 26th of February, so please email shop@plantationsystems.com for more information and to book/confirm your place.
Latest published truffle research article
Our most recent research article has been published and is now available for download.
The scientific paper, titled “The role of pH in Tuber aestivum syn. uncinatum mycorrhiza development within commercial orchards” presents data highlighting the importance of soil pH in truffle development and is a good read for those interested in truffle cultivation.
Soil pH is one of the basic parameters involved in truffle cultivation, but too often we see sites where it has been overlooked. For any questions/comments please do get in touch (shop@PlantationSystems.com).
