Wood Fiber-Based Growing Media for Strawberry Cultivation: Effects of Incorporation of Peat and Compost

نویسندگان

چکیده

Cultivation of strawberries in greenhouses and polytunnels is increasing, new sustainable growing media are needed to replace peat coconut coir. This study investigated the effect wood fiber compost as on hydroponically cultivated strawberries. Two experiments were conducted, where everbearing cultivar ‘Murano’ was grown mixtures (Experiment 1) seasonal flowering ‘Malling Centenary’ 2). Additionally, Experiment 2, adding start fertilizer assessed. The yield potential plants maintained all substrates compared coir control. However, a mixture 75% 25% produced highest yield, suggesting that nutritious materials with may improve plant performance. chemical composition berries not affected by substrate composition; however, from best performing blend had lower firmness than those higher yields enriched fertilizer. Generally, productivity blends containing up even without

The Cultivation of Arabidopsis for Experimental Research Using Commercially Available Peat-Based and Peat-Free Growing Media

Experimental research involving Arabidopsis thaliana often involves the quantification of phenotypic traits during cultivation on compost or other growing media. Many commercially-available growing media contain peat, but peat extraction is not sustainable due to its very slow rate of formation. Moreover, peat extraction reduces peatland biodiversity and releases stored carbon and methane into ...

Trichoderma-Inoculated Miscanthus Straw Can Replace Peat in Strawberry Cultivation, with Beneficial Effects on Disease Control

Peat based growing media are not ecologically sustainable and often fail to support biological control. Miscanthus straw was (1) tested to partially replace peat; and (2) pre-colonized with a Trichoderma strain to increase the biological control capacity of the growing media. In two strawberry pot trials (denoted as experiment I & II), extruded and non-extruded miscanthus straw, with or without...
