Within a day, you should receive an acknowledgment of acceptance as a subscriber as well as instructions for using the Forum.

The value of the AERGC E-Mail Forum will depend on the contributions sent to it by subscribers. This may include information, questions, answers and discussions on greenhouse systems, growth chambers, pest control, biological controls and greenhouse IPM, equipment, supplemental lighting, management policies, greenhouse environmental control systems, operating tips, current events, greenhouse design, job openings, plant culture, plant and seed exchanges, etc. The AERGC E-Mail Forum is not moderated, messages are automatically sent out to subscribers soon after they are received at the server. You are encouraged to participate by posting items of interest to your colleagues and by replying to messages from other subscribers. We also hope that the AERGC E-Mail Forum will help to generate ideas and articles for the AERGC Greenhouse Newsletter.
