Submitted by Гость (not verified) on Tue, 07/09/2024 - 16:45The effect of different silicon-containing fertilizers (NanoKremniy, Siliplant, biostimulant “Bona Forte” and sodium silicate) on the growth, development and yield of hybrids of cucumber Byorn F1 and tomato Merlis F1 was studied under conditions of low-volume hydroponics. The studies showed that carrying out foliar feeding of tomato resulted in earlier production and reliable yield increase of 6.5–8.0 kg/m 2 by increasing the number of fruits by 10–12% and the average fruit weight by 18–23%.
