Other claims from this paper (5)
- Intervention effect Nitrate at 6 mmol/L produced heavier pepino yields than 3 mmol/L.
- Intervention effect Increasing nitrate to 12 mmol/L did not increase yield.
- Intervention effect Salt decreased pepino yield in all cases.
- Intervention effect Trimming to two main shoots produced heavy fruit set.
- Intervention effect Thinning to three sets per truss gave even fruit distribution between trusses.
