May, Jun) Late fall (Oct, v.)
5 Slide 25 Slide 26 May-Check in Tmat Fruit Set Start by getting rid f the junk & d it early in develpment A drp in fruit set fllwing heavy flwering & fruit set in March & April Aviding r reducing a drp ff in prductin requires a ttal management apprach: temperature, fruit lad, fertility & water management Slide 27 Slide 28 The Irrigatin Balancing Act Bth Water & Fertility Reprductive Grwth Stress Vegetative Grwth Can Influence the Tendency Tward Either Increased Stress Reduced Stress Vegetative Grwth r Reprductive (Flwering & Fruiting) BER High Quality Fruit Water Quantity & Frequency Cracking T Little T Much Slide 29 Irrigatin: rules f thumb Slide 8-1% dry dwn = Vegetative Grwth 17% dry dwn = reprductive grwth Adjust water stress thrughut the day (wetter early, drier later) Adjust water frequency t weather cnditins & plant size Frequent light irrigatins are best Avid chrnic ver r under watering Avid daily extremes Cucumber under stress: similar symptms can ccur frm water stress, stem rt, r excessive fruit lad
6 Slide 1 utrient requirements are related t the stage f plant develpment & seasnal cnditins Slide 2 Cucumber Prir t first flwer: run K: rati f 1:1 t build the vegetative plant structure Similar t tmat, fertilizer prgram is adjusted fr three stages in prductin: 1 st cluster t 4 th : run K: rati f 1.5:1 Transplant t 4-6 leaf stage rmal feed Mature fruit t ripening: run K: rati f 1.7:1 Heavy fruiting T bst vegetative grwth at any time: increase nitrgen prprtin especially ammnium (H 4 ) frm Slide Cucumber cmpared t Tmat Very high ptassium requirement Very high magnesium requirement Slide 4 itrgen frm: H 4 :O rati T bst vegetative grwth at any time: increase nitrgen prprtin especially ammnium (H 4 ) frm Typically keep H 4 t 1% f ttal r less but can increase it mre in the shrt term High calcium requirement Typically use a base frmula supplemented with K 2 SO 4, MKP (KH 2 PO 4 ), calcium nitrate, ptassium nitrate and ammnium nitrate. Ttal fertility level In early Spring & Fall, higher EC (2.5-.5) In Summer, lwer EC ( ) Slide 5 Matching Irrigatin & Slide 6 Rule Fur: Match Irrigatin & Fertility t Prevailing Light Envirnment Fertility with Envirnment 25 atural daily PAR available in the greenhuse As light (& temperature) increase, water uptake als increases Ttal PAR (ml/m2/day) Irrigatin frequency shuld increase utrient slutin cncentratin shuld decrease Feb 1 Feb 15 Mar 1 Mar 15 Apr 1 Time Irrigatin=daily adjustment Fertilizatin=seasnal r stage f develpment adjustment
7 Slide 7 Slide 8 Sme General Rules Smaller the Rt vlume the Less Buffered the system is t Changes in bth utrient status & Water Status S chse yur system wisely (e.g. t fit yur management ability & time cnstraints) Smaller the rt vlume the less buffered it is t change (ph, EC) Inert media are less buffered against change than Peat-lite & sil-based media As buffering decreases, the need t mre clsely mnitr & manage nutritin increases Small rt vlumes, allw fr better cntrl f crp grwth & develpment BUT nly if yu are able t mnitr and manage clsely Slide 9 Mnitr utritinal & Water Status Regularly Slide 4 Use f Grafted Rtstck t Cntrl Plant Vigr. Grafted rtstck increases the POTETIAL fr Cnsistently Big Yields. With Use f Rtstck like Maxifrt, grwers can find the Challenge f Reining in Excessive Vigr mre f a Management issue than Aviding Lss f Vigr Slide 41 Cucumbers are als grafted but fr disease resistence Slide 42 Use Superir Rt-Stck fr Increased Vigr
8 Slide 4 The mst imprtant factr f all is Grwer Experience: Slide 44 uts & blts f building a fertilizer prgram Learning t Read the Plant Identify prblems early and make the Prper adjustments quickly Selecting fertilizers Determining cncentratins Leaves appear bright under lw water stress & duller under mderate water stress Thick stem (1/2 at 6 frm the tp; thicker = t vegetative, thinner= t much stress) Adjusting cncentratins Calculating ratis Leaves shuld be clsely spaced, expand rapidly & deep green in clr Flwers & fruit shuld set easily Slide 45 General requirements: Typical ranges fr nutrients (ppm) Tmat (O/H4) ppm (5-1% H4) Cucumber (O/H4) ppm (7-14% H4) P K Ca S Mg Fe K/ Rati :1 t 1.7:1 P K Ca S Mg Fe K/ Rati :1 t 2.1:1 EC EC Slide 46 Cmparing sme basic frmulatins Fertilizer Hydr-Sl Jack s Chem-Gr Plantex Plantex (O/H4) 5 (5/) 5 (5/) 4 (.5/.5) 6 (6/) P2O5 K2O Ca S Mg Fe % (6.48/.52) Slide 47 Example f a simple fertilizer prgram: EC=2.

Select the base fertilizer yu are using (e.g. Hydr-Sl , Jack s , Chem-gr ) 2. Find the rw that prvides all f the P (phsphrus) yu need.. ext Lk up calcium nitrate & find the rw that prvides all f the Ca (calcium) yu need. 4. Sub-ttal by adding up all the nitrgen, all the P, all the K (ptassium) etc. 5. Calculate K/ rati (ttal K divided by ttal ) yu can als estimate EC by ttaling all f the nutrients tgether (ttal ppm), divide this number by 68 and then add the EC f yur water. 6. Add ther fertilizers such as Epsm salts t supplement Mg (magnesium), ptassium nitrate t increase ptassium & nitrgen as needed. 7. T increase plant vigr (increase nitrgen & lwer K/ rati), by increasing calcium nitrate r yu can add a small amunt f ammnium nitrate. 8. T reduce plant vigr, increase the K/ rati by increasing the base fertilizer r increasing ptassium nitrate.
