Soilless culture can be defined as “any method of growing plants without the use of soil as a rooting medium, in which the inorganic nutrients absorbed by the roots are supplied via the irrigation water”. The fertilizers containing the nutrients to be supplied to the crop are dissolved in the appropriate concentration in the irrigation water and the ...

Nutrient Solutions for Soilless Cultures
2009Nutrient solutions intended for plant growth are already used from the middle of the 19th century, when the importance of mineral elements for plant growth was made clear by Justus von Liebig. In advance, the nutrient solutions used to grow plants in so called “water cultures” had a simple composition and consisted of salts like KNO3, Ca(NO3)2, KHPO4 ...

NUTRIENT SUPPLY IN SOILLESS CULTURE: ON-DEMAND STRATEGIES
Acta Horticulturae, 2004Efficient use of nutrients is of economic and environmental importance. In soilless cultures nutrient supply is coupled to water supply. Usually, a solution with a nutrient concentration (EC) and nutrient ratios based on average uptake rates is supplied.

POSTHARVEST QUALITY OF CUCUMBER GROWN BY SOILLESS CULTURE
Acta Horticulturae, 2000Shelf life of cucumber fruits is dependent on the preharvest conditions prevealing during the growing season as well as storage conditions. The aim of this study is to investigate the effects of growing factors in soilless culture on postharvest performance of cucumbers.

Subirrigation in Soilless Culture
2015T oprağın bitkisel üretime uygun olmadığı yerlerde bitki yetiştiriciliğine olanak sağlayan, bitki gelişimi ve ürün kalitesini kontrol altında tutulabilen bir yetiştiricilik şekli olan topraksız tarım, toprak dezenfeksiyonu gereğini ortadan kaldırması nedeniyle de metil bromit kullanımının alternatifi olarak seracılıkta hızla yaygınlaşmaktadır.

Dutch developments in soilless culture
Outlook on Agriculture, 1982In the last few years soilless cultures have been vigorously developed in Holland. Although many different substrates have been used, rockwool is the most popular. The first Dutch experiments carried out by Verwer at the Institute of Agricultural Engineering in Wageningen used rockwool and nutrient film technique (NFT).
