Abstract

Effects of interspace mulching between polyethylene film house on growth and quality of oriental melon were followed. Soil moisture in control was 26.0%. Those of black nonwoven fabrics sheet and black film were less 1.2% and 2.9% than control, respectively. Soil temperature in control plot was $2.4^{\circ}$ Those of black nonwoven fabrics sheet and black film were higher $0.8^{\circ}$ and $1.8^{\circ}$ than control, respectively. Black film was better than control in stem length, leaf number and area, chlorophyll content, xylem exudate, first flowering and fruit riping periods. Black film was better in fruit weight and soluble solid, and lesser in fermented and malformed fruit ratios, and increased 28% in marketable fruit ratio to control, 1,864kg. This results were mainly from vinyl coverage between polyethylene film house to intercept rainfall and to increase soil temperature, which fasted growth of roots after transplanting in winter season.

하우스와 하우스 사이에 비닐 멀칭이 참외의 생육 및 품질에 미치는 영향을 검토한 결과는 다음과 같다. 토양수분은 무처리구의 26.0%에 비하여 흑색부직포 및 흑색필름 처리구에서 각각 1.2%, 2.9%정도 적었으나, 지온은 무처리구 $2.4^{\circ}C$에 비하여 흑색부직포 및 흑색필름 처리구에서 각각 $0.8^{\circ}C,\;1.8^{\circ}C$ 더 높았다. 무처리구에 비하여 흑색필름 처리구에서 초장, 엽수, 엽록소 함량, 엽면적 및 일비액량 등 초기생육이 우수하였으며, 개화도 빠르고 성숙 소요일수도 단축되었다. 과중, 당도 등 과실의 품질도 흑색필름 처리구에서 우수하였고 발효과율 및 기형과율이 감소하여 상품과율이 증가하여 10a당 상품과수량은 무처리구의 1,864kg에 비하여 흑색필름 처리구에서 28%증가하였다. 이와 같이 흑색필름 처리구에서 참외의 과중이 무겁고, 당도가 높고 발효과 발생이 감소하고 상품수량이 증가한 것은 하우스 동간 멀칭으로 수분 유입이 차단되어 지온이 상승하여 뿌리의 활착이 빨라 생육이 촉진됨에 따라 과실의 품질이 향상된 것으로 생각된다.
