Evaluation of alternative substrates for hydroponics based on biological parameters of leaf lettuce (Lactuca sativa L.) and its stress response
The study focusses on alternative substrates with the potential to replace common substrates, such as mineral wool and perlite, as the influence of these on ecosystems and resources is being debated. To this aim, wood fibre, sheep wool and coco peat substrates were selected for testing. Leaf lettuce...
