MEETING 



UPDATE 



Murray Farms 



November 19, 3:30 to 5:30 



The last NHPGA Twilight Meeting before the start of the 

 holiday season will be at Murray Farms on River Road in 

 Penacook, NH. Appropriately, the main crop is poinsettias 

 (55,000 square feet of them). 



But there's a whole series of other things to see: 

 innovative benching systems (a new cantilever design as 

 well as an-other "peninsular modular stackable" system 

 that's been used and modified over several years), a chip- 

 burning boiler (one of several boilers in Dave's collection), 

 a Wadsworth MicroStep climate control system, and 

 recently designed equipment for handling bulk- 

 bagged media. Dave and Don also use higher night 

 temperature (DIP) to regulate plant growth and this 

 technique will be discussed as well. 



Dave and Don — and probably some other Murrays 

 along with them — will be your hosts. The meeting begins 

 at 3:30 (a little earlier than usual, to give members a 

 chance to see some things in daylight). Murray Farms is 

 on River Road in Penacook (a map and directions will 

 beon the flier). It should be an evening for everyone 

 to learn and relax and celebrate the beginning of a 

 successful holiday season. 



For information, call Dave Murray at (603) 753-6781.
