1 Effect of Electrical Conductivity of the Soil Solution on Stem Elongation in Fertigated Roses Heiner Lieth and Lorence R. Oki Department of Environmental Horticulture University of California
2 Introduction: Prof Heiner Lieth Research: Mathematical modeling of greenhouse crops (roses, orchids, lily) Greenhouse environment control automation (irrigation, temperature, light, CO, etc) Extension: Greenhouse and nursery crop production Teaching Greenhouse production management Mathematical modeling in horticulture
3 Introduction: Prof Heiner Lieth Rose Research: Development of a crop simulation model for cut-flower roses Optimal irrigation in roses, especially in hydroponics Also note: in roses, stem length is of ultimate importance Roses are graded by length The longer the rose stem, the higher the price. Thus: quantitative analysis of rose stem length is important (it can help us optimize)
4 Introduction: Prof Heiner Lieth Outline of today s presentation: Background of irrigation work Research on rose stem elongation Methodology Experimental design Results of effect of salinity on stem length Summary/Conclusions
5 Background Previous research: Irrigation based on soil moisture tension increased stem length Led to development of tensiometer-based irrigation techniques Left us with the question: why? Evidence suggested salinity might be an issue Objective of research project presented today: Track stem elongation rates while irrigating with solutions of different salinity levels Investigate whether horticultural (irrigation) methods can be modified to optimize final stem length

29 Summary Salinity can reduce the stem elongation rate The higher the salinity, the greater the inhibition Stem elongation rates recover from a short exposure to a high EC solution but not to pretreatment levels part of the loss is permanent
