Other claims from this paper (6)
- Observation The four compound substrates had physicochemical properties within the appropriate ranges for tomato soilless culture before cultivation.
- Intervention effect Plant height and stem diameter of tomato in substrate B stayed close to the CK1 and CK2 controls throughout the growth period.
- Association The root-shoot ratio of tomato in substrate B was the largest among treatments.
- Intervention effect Sugar-to-acid ratio of tomato in substrate B increased by 72.3% relative to CK2.
- Intervention effect Nitrate content of tomato in substrate B decreased by 26.1% relative to CK2.
- Recommendation Compound substrate B can replace peat in soilless culture of greenhouse tomato.
