About Horticulture: Fruit, Vegetable and Protected Crops

GoConqr Original

What this page covers

This page brings together study material on fruit, vegetable and protected crops. Much of it is identification work: plant ID, weed ID and pest and disease ID. Some of it is vocabulary, such as greenhouse parts and soil terms. Some is crop-specific, with material on oranges, blueberries, raspberries, avocados, cabbage and peas.

Where to start

If you are new to the topic, begin with the quiz Intro to Horticulture. It asks about basics such as the node of a shoot and how plant groups are classified. Then open the flashcard deck Horticulture Definitions, which lists terms like soil texture, field capacity, genus and species.

Next, choose the area you need:

Protected crops: the deck Greenhouse Structure Terminology covers the rafter, ridge, purlin, eave and gable. Then look at the mind maps PROTECTED CROPS and GREENHOUSE.
Fruit: the Oranges Flashcards deck asks about nutritional value, disease control and fertilizer. Try Washington Navel Oranges Quick Quiz 1 afterwards.
Vegetables: the mind maps vegetables families and Cabbage give a visual overview.
Identification: the quizzes on plant ID and pest ID show a picture and ask you to name it.

Using quizzes and maps together

Read a mind map first to see how a crop or topic fits together. Then take a quiz on the same topic and note what you got wrong. Go back to the map or a flashcard deck for those points, and try the quiz again a few days later. For identification, flip through a plant ID deck until the names feel familiar, then test yourself with a picture quiz.

Where this unit sits

This unit belongs to the Horticulture and Forestry strand of Agriculture and agronomy. The resources come from many contributors, so styles and depth vary. Some suit school students meeting the subject, others suit university students and professional candidates who need more detail.

Your next step

Choose one quiz or deck above and spend ten minutes with it. When you see a gap, you can make your own map or flashcards to fill it.

Frequently asked questions

Which resource should I open first?

Start with the quiz Intro to Horticulture. It covers basic questions on shoots, plant groups and turfgrass, so it shows quickly what you already know. After that, the flashcard deck Horticulture Definitions fills in terms like soil texture, genus and species.

What do the mind maps on this page cover?

There are over 20 mind maps. They cover crop families, individual crops such as cabbage, blueberry, raspberry, lavender and avocado, and protected cropping, including maps titled PROTECTED CROPS and GREENHOUSE. A few look at horticulture industries in specific countries.

Are the resources free to use?

Yes. Every resource listed here is free to open, study and take, with no account needed. They were made by GoConqr users, not by GoConqr itself, so you can expect a range of styles. Pick whichever quiz, map or deck matches the crop you are working on.

Who are these resources suitable for?

They suit university students and professional candidates, school students, and teachers looking for ready-made material. Some items are introductory, like Intro to Horticulture, while others are closer to course tests. None of the listed resources name a specific exam.

Is there help with plant and pest identification?

Yes. Several quizzes show an image and ask you to name the plant or weed, including ones on plant ID, pest ID and disease, pest and weeds. Flashcard decks such as Plant Identification and Plant Ident 8 let you practice names before you test yourself.

What if my topic is not listed?

Look at the related crops and decks first, since a mind map on a similar crop may help. If nothing fits, you can make your own quiz, mind map, flashcards or notes with a free account, which also saves your quiz scores.
