Spinach production in cocopeat: Effects of soil block number and the number of emitters on plant growth, nitrate concentration, and antioxidant activity

Currently, the interest in the use of coir dust (or cocopeat) as a growing medium has increased. The aim of this research was to evaluate the effects of plant density and the number of emitters per Styrofoam box on plant growth, nitrate (NO3-) concentration and antioxidant activity in spinach (Spina...
