ISHS Acta Horticulturae 371: VII International Symposium on Timing Field Production of Vegetables

INFLUENCE OF COVERING WITH FIBRECLOTH AND PLASTIC ON TIMING, YIELD AND QUALITY OF KOHLRABI

Author:   R. Pessala
Abstract:
The methods of covering the plants with fibrecloth, and a fibrecloth- and plastic-tunnel were tested with six cultivars of kohlrabi. With fibrecloth cover the yields were a little better and the growing time some days shorter. However in the timing of yield the choice of cultivar seemed to be as important as the covering with fibrecloth. The F1-hybrid cultivars 'Bocal', 'Korist', 'Kolpak' and 'Kolibri' had shorter growing time than the older cultivars 'Lanro' and 'Purple Vienna'.
