GLASE launches new greenhouse systems short course

The Cornell University Greenhouse Lighting and Systems Engineering (GLASE) consortium will offer its latest virtual short course with a focus on three interactive greenhouse systems. Experts from academia and industry will share how growers can select and operate greenhouse coverings, climate screens, and supplemental horticultural lighting.

The 2024 GLASE Short Course runs from April 4 to May 9 and will feature six 90-minute modules presented over six weeks on Thursdays from 2:00 to 3:30 pm ET. Attend live sessions to participate in question-and-answer sessions with speakers and receive a discounted individual GLASE membership. Recordings will be made available on-demand in June.

The Greenhouse Systems Short Course is an educational series that will explore three major systems maintaining greenhouse environments and their interactive effects. To showcase the ways these systems improve plant quality and yields and save energy in greenhouses, industry experts will define the types of commercially available coverings, curtains, and lighting systems, show how these systems work together to support plant growth and development, and share real-world case studies. By the end of the virtual course, participants will be able to make informed decisions about selecting and using greenhouse systems in their growing operations.

The course is sponsored by Hoogendoorn Growth Management, Philips Horticulture LED Lighting, Svensson Climate Screens, and AGCULTURE by AGC.
