Abstract
This experiment has investigated the effects of growth, yield, and fruit quality of strawberries by two different kinds of growth substrate layers. The experiment was performed with strawberry cultivar ‘Akihime’ in greenhouse in Daegu University. Perlite, cocopeat, cocopeat/perlite (upper layer/lower layer), vermiculite/perlite and the mixture of vermiculite and rice hull were used for solid substrate. Nutrient solution for strawberries, which made by Yamazaki, was supplied in proper concentration by its growth stage. Early stages of strawberry growth were the best at the cocopeat substrate in terms of number of leaves, leaf length, and leaf width. The soluble solids and fruit length of the strawberries did not differ from the different kind of substrates. However, the weight and diameter of strawberries did have the best outcomes from the cocopeat substrate and the cocopeat/perlite two layer substrates. The number of strawberries was the best at the cocopeat/perlite substrates due to the high capacity of moisture holding at the upper layer and the good air permeability of the lower layer, which derived good nourishment from the well developed roots. The results of this experiment will be utilized in the new substrate application for strawberry hydroponics.
