Abstract

In this study, changes in the yield and quality of tomato (Solanum lycopersicon cv. Sedef F1) seedlings at different soilless growth media were studied under greenhouse conditions. For this purpose, as a growing medium; peat, zeolite vermicompost and different mixtures of these substrates [Zeolite 100% (M1); Peat 100% (M2); Peat 80% + Vermicompost 20% (M3); Zeolite 80% + Vermicompost 20% (M4); Peat 65% + Zeolite 15% + Vermicompost 20% (M5); Peat 40% + Zeolite 40% + Vermicompost 20% (M6)] were used. At the end of the 45-day trial period, seed germination percentage, seedling height, seedling stem diameter, shoot fresh weight, root length, root weight and plant nutrients content (N, P, K, Ca, Mg, Fe, Zn, Mn and Cu) were determined. In the experiment, media of M5 was found to give the best results for germination percentage, seedling height, root length, seedling fresh weight and root weight parameters of tomato seedling. M1 environment did not make a positive impact on the tomato seedling cultivation. However, the data suggested that it would be useful zeolite in a mixture with other media. Based on the results obtained, the M5 provides more advantageous environment for the development of seedling and it can be readily used in terms of seedlings growing in soilless culture.

Özet

Bu çalışmada, farklı topraksız yetiştirme ortamlarındaki domatesin fide verim ve kalitesindeki değişimler sera koşulları altında araştırılmıştır. Bu amaçla araştırmada yetiştirme ortamı olarak; torf, zeolit ve vermikompost ve bu maddelerin farklı karışımları [Zeolit % 100 (M1); Torf % 100 (M2); Torf % 80 + Vermikompost % 20 (M3); Zeolit % 80 + Vermikompost % 20 (M4); Torf % 65 + Zeolit % 15 + Vermikompost % 20 (M5); Torf % 40 + Zeolit % 40 + Vermikompost % 20 (M6)] kullanılmıştır. 45 günlük deneme periyodu sonunda: tohum çimlenme yüzdesi, fide boyu, fide gövde çapı, fide yaş ağırlığı, kök uzunluğu, kök ağırlığı ve bitki besin element içerikleri (N, P, K, Ca, Mg, Fe, Zn, Mn ve Cu) belirlenmiştir. Araştırmada, çimlenme yüzdesi, fide boyu, kök boyu, fide yaş ağırlığı, kök ağırlık parametrelerinde M5 ortamı en iyi sonuç veren ortam olmuştur. M1 ortamı (% 100 zeolit) domates fide yetiştiriciliğinde olumlu etki meydana getirmemiş ancak diğer ortamlarla karışım halinde kullanılmasının daha uygun olacağı belirlenmiştir. Diğer taraftan, M5 ortamının fide gelişimi bakımından avantajlı olduğu ve topraksız kültürde fide yetiştiriciliğinde rahatlıkla kullanılabileceği belirlenmiştir.
