Downes Wholesale Nursery - Theresa Park Nursery update. 
Theresa Park Nursery.
Things are moving rapidly now, the tens of thousands of plants have grown to hundreds of thousands in the last month, trading for our new site will begin shortly as plants are thriving with the added heat and rain we have been experiencing. We now have over 1,000 Eucalyptus in 45lt, 75lt and 100lt as well as hundreds of beautiful deciduous trees in 200lt containers to name a few. We are putting in place an Iodine injection unit for disease control, John Woodhouse of Ioteq Australia writes, "Water Disinfection and disease control for Nurseries, In a world first Ioteq Australia Pty. Limited has delivered a revolutionary, highly effective and cost effective water disinfection and disease control system with no environmental impacts to the industry. Iodine and the Isan™ system provides nurseries with a breakthrough in disease and pathogen management by providing extremely powerful bacterial and fungal control using the well known and highly regarded biocide of iodine. When in contact with micro-organisms such as bacteria, viruses, fungi and protozoa, iodine is able to rapidly penetrate their cell wall and oxidise a number of critical components within the cell. The combined effect of these oxidative reactions is cell death. Most major nursery diseases are spread by pathogen spores carried via water. This will become an increasingly bigger problem where recycled water is used. Disease prevention makes far better economic sense than disease curative programs. The system is fully automated and self regulating, it requires no chemical mixing and can give you certified delivery, with the ability to also remove all biocide from the water stream as well if required.
