오이 관비재배에서 토성에 따른 적정 관비액 조성을 구명하고자 양토와 사양토를 대상으로 Yamasaki 오이배양액 농도에 따른 토양의 화학성 변화, 생육 및 과실 특성 등을 조사하였다. 토양 EC는 모두 재배 중기부터 상승하였고, pH는 양토에서는 적정수준이었으나 사양토는 모두 높은 수준이었다. 광합성속도는 양토 1/2배액, 증산율은 사양토 1배액에서 가장 낮았다. 그리고 확산저항성과 엽록소함량은 사양토 1배액에서 높았다. 배액량은 사양토 1/2배 액에서 가장 많았고 양토 1배액에서 가장 적었고, 수분 흡수량은 반대의 경향이었다. 토양 무기양분은 두 토양 모두에서 칼슘을 제외하고 1배액에서 높았다. 잎의 질소 함량은 사양토 1배액, 인산은 양토 1/2배액, 가리는 모두 1배액, 칼슘은 양토 1/2배액과 사양토 1배액, 마그네슘은 양토 1/2 배액에서 높았다. 생육과 수량은 사양토보다 양토에서 높았고 1배액에서 가장 좋았다. 따라서 오이 관비재배 시 양토에서는 $NO_3$-N 12.3, $NH_4$-N 1.0, P 3.0, K 5.9, Ca 5.7, Mg $3.5;me;L^{-1}$, 사양토에서는 $NO_3$-N 11.7, $NH_4$-N 1.0, P 3.0, K 5.9, Ca 4.9, g $3.2;me;L^{-1}$으로 조성된 배양액이 적합한 것으로 생각된다.
To determine suitable composition of nutrient solution according to soil textures in fertigation culture of cucumber using three strengths (S) of Yamasaki cucumber recipe, chemical changes of soil, growth characteristics and yield of cucumber were investigated. Electric conductivity of drainage solution was risen in all treatments, pH of loam soil was generally optimum level and that of sandy soil was high level. Photosynthetic rate in loam soil supplied the 1/2 S and transpiration rate in sandy soil supplied the 1.0 S were most low. Diffusive resistance in sandy soil supplied the 1.0 S was high. Chlorophyll contents was higher concentrations by the kinds of soil. Amount of drainage solution in sandy loam soil supplied the 1/2 S and loam soil supplied the 1.0 S were most much and little, respectively. Water absorption rate was the opposition to amount of drainage solution. Nutrient contents in soil except calcium were most high in the 1.0 S by the kinds of soil. Nutrient contents in leaves, nitrogen in sandy soil supplied 1.0 S, phosphorus in loam soil supplied 1/2 S, potassium in two soil supplied 1.0 S, calcium in loam supplied 1/2 S and sandy loam soil supplied 1.0 S, magnesium in loam soil supplied the 1/2 S was high. The growth and yield of fruit were more in loam than in sandy loam soil. Therefore, the suitable compositions of macro-nutrients for fertigation culture of cucumber were determined in loam and sandy loam soils as follows: In loam soil, they were $NO_3$-N 12.3, $NH_4$-N 1.0, P 3.0, K 5.9, Ca 5.7, Mg $3.5;me{cdot}L^{-1}$, whereas in sandy loam soil $NO_3$-N 11.7, $NH_4$-N 1.0, P 3.0, K 5.9, Ca 4.9, Mg $3.2;me;L^{-1}$.
