abstract:
The studies were aimed at the optimisation of nitrogen and potassium nutrition of cherry tomato grown in coconut fibre. The studies were carried out in a greenhouse in the years 2001-2002. Three tomato cultivars (Lycopersicon esculentum var. cerasiforme Alef.): Conchita F1, Flavorino F1 and Favorita F1 were grown. Applied nutrient solutions differed in the amount of nitrogen, potassium and N:K ratio. It was found that in the coconut fibre a significant accumulation of components takes place and particularly it refers to sulphates, nitrates, potassium, calcium, magnesium and sodium. The amount of accumulated components depends on the grown tomato cultivar. During plant cultivation in coconut fibre, a periodical control of its nutrients content is necessary.
