FIELD: agriculture.
SUBSTANCE: method of growing Rubus arcticus in hydroponics involves planting adult plants in pots with a substrate and placing them on a multi-tiered hydroponic installation. Coconut fibre or neutral peat is used as a substrate. Temperature, light and humidity are maintained constant throughout the entire growing period. The duration of the light regime for the vegetative stage is set to be 16 hours of light and 8 hours of darkness. Illumination in the working area is 11 klx. Air temperature range is 20-23°C, nutrient solution temperature is 18-21°C. The permissible humidity level during the growing season is 65-70%. For growing plants in the working area, the pH of nutrient solutions is 5.0-6.0, the electrical conductivity of the nutrient solution is in the range of 1.7-2.0 mS/cm.
EFFECT: increase of efficiency of growing Rubus arcticus in protected soil using the hydroponics method.
