The aim of this work was to study the effect of potassium and calcium in combination with nitrogen upon the yield and fruit quality of outdoor-grown melon (Cucumis melo L.). Two experiments were simultaneously performed through the use of two cultivars: 'Honey Dew Green Flesh' (Inodorus group) and 'Sivan' (Charentais group). A completely randomized experimental design was used with nine treatments resulting in a factorial arrangement of 3 x 3 due to the use of three doses of K and three doses of Ca. Doses were administered through fertigation with the injection of the fertilizers into a drip irrigation system, expressed as follows in relation to N: N:K (1.8:1.0 - 1.0:1.0 - 0.0:1.0) and Ca:N (2.0:1.0 - 1.0:1.0 - 0.0:1.0). Fertilization with nitrogen and... |
