Nutrient uptake of pepino plants in soilless cultivation
The Journal of Horticultural Science and Biotechnology, 2001 This study addresses vegetative growth and the uptake of nutrients and their accumulation in the vegetative and reproductive tissues of pepino (Solanum muricatum Ait.). The study was conducted in soilless plastic house conditions, with a planting density equivalent to 25 000 plants ha(-1) during two seasons (1997-98 and 1998-99).
