Abstract

We analyzed drainage water from coir substrate in which cucumber plants were grown in winter and elucidated changes in pH, EC, and major nutrients according to the growth stages to recommend nutrient solution management appropriate to each growth stage. From the analysis of drainage solution the growth stages of cucumber were desirable to be divided into two, planting to fruit setting and fruit setting to harvest in case of nutrient solution management. The time required was about 3 weeks from planting to the first fruit setting and thereafter 7~10 days more until the first harvest. Approximately every 3~4 days were needed until the upper flowers bloomed. The time required from fruit setting to harvest was not different much among flowers as cucumber plants grew. From the experimental results, EC of supplied solution was recommended to maintain a little high to $3.0dS{\cdot}m^{-1}$ until before fruit setting and lower a little to $2.0{\sim}2.3dS{\cdot}m^{-1}$ after that. Of course, the amount of solution supply should be increased as plants grew. In case of each nutrients, the recommendation of concentrations of nitrogen, phosphorus and calcium were 700, 60, and $110mg{\cdot}L^{-1}$ each until before fruit setting, and then 660, 50, and $100mg{\cdot}L^{-1}$ each after fruit setting. The concentrations of potassium and magnesium are recommended to start from 400 and $80mg{\cdot}L^{-1}$ until fruit setting and lower a little after that.

오이 고형배지경에서 배액을 분석하여 생육단계에 따른 pH, EC 변화와 주요 영양소의 흡수변화를 구명하고, 이를 적용하여 오이의 생육단계에 적절한 양분관리방안을 제시하기 위하여 본 실험을 수행하였다. 배액의 pH와 EC 변화양상 및 배액분석을 통하여 오이의 생육단계는 정식 후부터 착과기, 착과 후부터 수확기로 분류하는 것이 적당한 것으로 판단하였다. 저온기에 가온시설 내에서 오이를 재배한 본 실험에서는 정식 후 첫 화방이 착과되기까지 약 3주의 시간이 소요되었고, 착과 후부터 첫 수확까지 소요일수는 약 7~10일로 조사되었다. 상위 화방으로 생육이 진행되는 속도는 약 3~4일정도 차이였고, 착과와 수확에 소요되는 일수는 대체로 일정했다. 오이의 코이어 자루재배 시, 전체 재배기간 중에서 착과 전에는 EC 농도를 $3.0dS{\cdot}m^{-1}$ 정도로 높게 관리하다가 착과 후에는 $2.0-2.3dS{\cdot}m^{-1}$ 정도로 낮추어 관리하고, 과실이 비대하면서 수분요구도가 증가하므로 일일급액량을 늘려주는 급액 관리가 적절한 것으로 사료된다. 원소별로는 질소, 인, 칼슘은 착과 전에는 N $700mg{\cdot}L^{-1}$, P $60mg{\cdot}L^{-1}$, Ca $110mg{\cdot}L^{-1}$ 수준으로 공급하고, 착과 후에는 N $660mg{\cdot}L^{-1}$, P $50mg{\cdot}L^{-1}$, Ca $100mg{\cdot}L^{-1}$ 수준으로 조절이 필요할 것으로 사료된다. 칼륨과 마그네슘은 착과 전기에는 각각 $400mg{\cdot}L^{-1}$$80mg{\cdot}L^{-1}$으로 공급하고, 후기에는 공급을 조금 줄여주는 것이 비료이용효율을 높일 수 있는 방법이 될 것이다.
