Overview

Learn to distinguish root diseases from planting or water issues and improve prevention and management of common soil-borne pathogens.

Plant losses from root diseases are frequently misdiagnosed, leading to ineffective treatments and unnecessary expense. This webinar reviews common soil-borne pathogens, including Phytophthora and Pythium, while emphasizing practical diagnosis and prevention strategies. Participants will learn how site conditions, irrigation practices, and planting decisions influence disease development. Designed to improve plant survival and reduce warranty losses in landscape and nursery settings.

AHJ Horticulture’s Right-of-Way (ROW) Recertification Training is designed for licensed pesticide applicators responsible for vegetation management along roadsides, utilities, railways, pipelines, drainage systems, and other managed corridors.

This on-demand program reinforces practical, field-based decision-making using Integrated Pest Management (IPM) principles tailored specifically to right-of-way environments. Participants review weed identification and biology, herbicide selection (selective vs. non-selective), contact vs. translocated products, plant growth regulators, and woody plant control methods including foliar, basal bark, hack-and-squirt, and cut stump treatments.

The course also addresses drift management, temperature inversions, environmental movement of herbicides, soil sterilants, aquatic vegetation considerations, erosion concerns, and proper pesticide recordkeeping. Emphasis is placed on safe, effective, and compliant application practices that protect desirable vegetation, water resources, infrastructure, and public safety.
