Description

Indoor hemp production presents unique challenges and opportunities for Indiana growers. On one hand, greenhouse environments provide growers with the ability to grow hemp year round while maintaining optimal day-length, temperature, and nutrient levels for hemp plants. On the other hand, greenhouse environments have an associated suite of insect pests that can be especially challenging to manage, particularly in the case of hemp, which has very few insecticides registered for use. Despite this limitation, there are opportunities to develop and optimize biological control strategies as a sustainable alternative or complement to insecticide-based management of arthropod pests of indoor hemp.
