Sažetak: Abstract
The trial was set in a greenhouse in the area of Čapljina (BiH) with the aim of determining the development of pepper transplants. Two research factors of were studied, the term of putting the containers on nutrient solution (immediately after sowing, after previous germination and in the stage of cotyledons) and substrate volume of individual seeding place (27, 37, 47 ml). Percentage of well-developed transplants was analyzed as well as morphological characteristics: transplant height (cm), diameter of transplant (mm) and number of leaves. The highest percentage of well-developed transplants (97.3%) was obtained in the containers placed on nutrient solution when transplants had developed cotyledon leaves. The term of putting the containers on nutrient solution showed a highly significant effect on transplant height (8.02 cm), diameter of transplant (2.72 mm) and the number of leaves (6.00). The substrate volume of a seeding place showed a highly significant effect on transplant height (7.05) and the number of leaves (5.00). Interaction of factors had a highly significant effect on the transplants height. The maximum height of the transplants (9.12 cm) was determined by placing the container on the nutrient solution when transplants had developed cotyledon leaves on substrate of 37 ml volume and highly significantly differed from others, with the exception of the same term of putting the containers on nutrient solution and 47 ml volume (8.90 cm), from which it did not significantly differ. The obtained results showed that the floating system technology is an alternative for the production of high-quality pepper transplants on family farms.
