Field Guide of Discovery-based Exercises for Organic Vegetable Production
5 Planting or transplanting operations (e.g., transplanting, mulching, irrigation, etc.);
5 Recovery and early vegetative stages (e.g., replanting, roguing of diseased plants, leaf
removal of infected leaves, cultural control of pests, spot weeding, side dressing of organic
and microbial-based fertilizers, irrigation, monitoring, etc.);
5 Active vegetative stage (e.g., roguing of diseased plants, leaf removal of infected leaves,
cultural control of pests, spot weeding, side dressing of organic and microbial-based
fertilizers, hilling up, irrigation, monitoring, etc.);
5 Late vegetative stage (e.g., roguing of diseased plants, leaf removal of infected leaves,
cultural control of pests, spot weeding, side dressing of organic and microbial-based
fertilizers, hilling up, irrigation, monitoring, etc.);
5 Head- or curd-forming stage (e.g., roguing of diseased plants, leaf removal of infected
leaves, cultural control of pests, spot weeding, side dressing of organic and microbialbased
fertilizers, hilling up, irrigation, monitoring, etc.); and
5 Harvest and post-harvest stages (e.g., harvesting, sorting, grading, packaging, etc.).
4. Synthesize and summarize output of small groups into one big group output. Draw up
