Seed Starting Liberia Africa style!
Tour a small greenhouse at the agriculture college in Liberia Africa. You may wonder why they need a greenhouse. The main reason is for seedling protection from soil born pests like nematodes. Also you will enjoy seeing grafted Valencia orange plants. The Liberian government is promoting development of citrus orchards to reduce imports.
