Hydrofizyczne charakterystyki podlozy ogrodniczych a dostepnosc wody dla roslin

W pracy przedstawiono badania hydrofizycznych charakterystyk podłoży ogrodniczych (krzywa pF, przewodnictwo wodne) pod kątem dostępności wody dla roślin.

The water consumption by plant roots is determined by the water potential and water transport properties of the substrate. The measured pF curves of different substrates and calculated unsaturated conductivity functions, from the point of view of water avaliability for plant are discussed. Horticultural substrates vary significantly in hydrophysical properties. Compromise the price and properties can be reached applying mixtures of different substrates.
