(Submitted by club Press Reporter Aidan Carnegie)

The Blenheim 4-H Field Crop Club members took part in a couple of recent tours.

They got a close-up look at Truly Green Farms in Chatham June 30th.

That included a look at the beginning of phase 2 of the greenhouse operation, which is expected to be completed next spring.

On July 9th the club had a mini diagnostic night at the University of Guelph's Ridgetown Campus.

Club members learned the different types of pigweed, crop rotations and how special kinds of spray nozzles are used in certain kinds of wind and how nozzle pressure affects spray quality and coverage.
