Evaluation of the Performance of Greenhouse Tomato Seedlings Grown With Different Cultivation Techniques
Özet
The present study was conducted to evaluate the effects of two different seedling production systems (floating and traditional) on earliness, growth, development, yield and some quality parameters of Tore F-1 tomatoes (Solanum lycopersicum, L.) grown under greenhouse conditions. Results revealed increased plant height (cm), plant diameter (mm), number of leaves, number of clusters, number of fruits per cluster, fruit diameter, fruit weight and yield values with floating seedling production treatments. Earliest harvesting period (27.45 day) and fruit set (30.70 day) were found in floating system. Seedling treatments had significant effects on earliness, growth, development, yield and quality of tomatoes (p <= 0.05).
