Mast Young Plants in Grand Rapids, MI, conducted its 21st annual field trials earlier this year. This year’s trials included several improvements, including new topsoil, uniform fertilizer lines, and new irrigation clocks equipped with WiFi, so the clocks can be activated from a grower’s phone, says General Manager Brian Weesies.
