Chicory of radicchio type is a vegetable similarly cultivated to head lettuce, yet featuring relatively longer plant growing period. Most of this crop cultivars characterize intensive red color of leaves and white leaves venation. Field experiment carried out in 2005–2007 involved cultivation, from transplants, of radicchio type chicory of ‘Indigo’ cultivar for autumn harvest. Seeds were sown at the...
The main factors determining the quantity and quality of the yield of plants grown in the soilless system is the kind of cultivation substrate used and the level of supplying the plants with nutrients. Studies conducted in the years 2005–2006 were aimed at determining the effect of substrates (peat, peat mixed with pine bark in the proportion of 1:1, peat with pine sawdust in the ratio of 1:1), as...
Fertilizing cultivable plants is an effective way of improving yield quantity and quality. The studies conducted in the years 2008–2009 were aimed at determining the relationship between the kind of nitrogen fertilizer, manner of its application, as well as the dose of calcium carbonate and the plant unit weight, as well as chemical composition of spinach beet, grown in glasshouse in the spring period...
Swiss chard is recognized as valuable leafy vegetable species with short growing period suitable for cultivation as forecrop and aftercrop in crop rotation .Till now is still a minor crop in Poland and there are not existing any data describing the response of this species to nitrogen fertilization and the effect of this nutrient on plant composition. In a field experiment conducted in 2004–2006,...
In a field experiment conducted in 2005-2006 the effects of the rate and method of nitrogen fertilization on yield and chemical composition of cv. Indygo radicchio cultivated for summer cropping were studied. Nitrogen was used in a single pre-plant dose or in two rates: as a pre-plant and top dressing application conducted at the start of head formation in the total amounts of 50, 100, 100+100, 150,...
The examinations were aimed at determining the dependence between form and rate of applied nitrogen fertilizer vs. yield and chemical composition of leaves of Swiss chard cultivated in greenhouse in spring. Nitrogen was applied in a form of urea, potassium nitrate, and ammonium nitrate at three amounts: 0.2; 0.4; 0.6 g N·dm⁻³ of substrate. Following items were assessed: yield, nutrients contents,...
A vegetation experiment was conducted in 2001–2002 in an unheated greenhouse on the effect of differentiated nitrogen fertilization on yield and quality of garden rocket. Nitrogen was used in three forms, i.e. lime saltpeter, urea and ammonium sulphate, and in three doses: 0.2; 0.4; 0.6 N·dm⁻³ (2001) and 0.25; 0.50; 0.75 g N·dm⁻³ (2002). The plants’ growth, yield and content of nutrients were evaluated...
