Advances in soilless culture of ornamentals
In the production of cut flowers and pot plants there are slow developments towards closed growing systems with recirculation of the surplus nutrient solution. In some countries, such as in The Netherlands, legislation to reduce discharges is a steering factor, as well as the advantages of a disease free start, higher potential production and quality ...

Effect of soilless media on nutrient uptake and yield of tomato (Solanum lycopersicum)
Soilless culture provides an alternative to soil culture when serious soil problems (i.e. soil borne pests, soil salinity, chemical residues in soil, lack of fertile soil) create difficulties in traditional soil-based production.

Abstract BACKGROUND Climate change and population growth are major challenges for sustainable food production, particularly in regions affected by water scarcity and soil salinization. In this context, halophytes represent promising candidates as alternative and sustainable food crops for salt‐affected areas.

Abstract BACKGROUND Preharvest light management is increasingly used to enhance yield and fruit quality in soilless systems, yet its effects on unripe melon fruits remain poorly understood. This study evaluated the impact of supplemental red–blue light‐emitting diode (LED) lighting applied during cultivation in a closed‐cycle hydroponic system on ...

ABSTRACT Biochar (BC) is increasingly recognized as a sustainable agricultural amendment to improve soil health, promote plant growth, and suppress insect pests. While its application has been extensively refined in conventional soil‐based agroecosystems, its performance in hydroponics, particularly in liquid formulations remain largely unexplored. The
