Difference Steamed & Pesticides Services

In 2021, we were in Spain and steamed for one of Europe’s largest vegetable producers. In one area where they grew Babyleaf (lettuce), they experienced poor growth, poor color, and high mortality of plants. This was due to soil disease. Such soil diseases cannot be combated with chemicals as the chemicals do not penetrate the soil masses. Steam, however, manages to penetrate the soil masses and the results can be seen below. In the areas we steamed, the soil disease was eliminated, and the babyleaf grew beautifully again. For the same producer, we also steamed parts of the areas where they were to grow celery and regular lettuce. There was significantly better growth in the crop in the steamed areas, and the pictures below illustrate the differences in growth.
