RESEARCH GREENHOUSES: Space Request & Supplies

SPACE REQUEST

In order to use any space in greenhouses or environmental chambers, you must submit a Space Request form (MSWord). Before beginning an experiment this form must be completed and emailed to Jim Velzy who allocates space. You will need to meet with the research staff to discuss your experiment and clarify your goals and needs before setting up your project in the facility. In addition please be familiar with the Information for Researchers (PDF) which outlines greenhouse staff responsibilities as well as researcher requirements.
