Effects of Different Growing Medium, Substrate and Irrigation Method Applications on Soilless Roll Sod

Abstract

1 ), plant height (mm), emergence speed (day), covering speed (day), root length (cm), overall appearance (1-9), shoot diameter (mm), tiller number (number cm 2 -1 ), leaf blade length (cm), leaf blade width (mm) and the index value (leaf blade length/leaf blade width). It was observed that there was no statistical difference between the applications in terms of overall appearance values. When root length and tiller number values, which are among the important growth parameters in the soilless roll sod production, application conveniences, biodegradability, and production costs are considered together, "Tu" growing medium, "Cf" substrate and "Sp" irrigation method applications came to the fore. To be able to obtain more realistic recommendations on this issue, land applications should be included in future research.
