Then, the effects ofmedia characteristics on nutrient contents of primula plant were evaluated. Allgrowth media was found inadequate in concentration for water soluble nutrientsNO3-N, P, K, Fe and Zn but other nutrients were acceptable levels.Bulk density (BD) of growing media was found between 0.071-0.139 g cm-3.When the ratio of NAP was increased in mixtures, BD also increased. Moreover,the growth media was prepared with IMP and NAP had enough aeration capacity(AC), low available water content (AWC), and very low water buffering capacity(WBC). Cation exchange capacity (CEC) values were determined as 83.32-105.70 me100 g-1. pH and EC of the media varied between 4.56-5.88 and0.39-1.00 dS m-1, respectively. On the other hand, when the NAPratio was more than 75% in the mixtures, pH level was a little out of thedesired limits. Organic C level was the highest in 100% IMP media. The qualityparameters and the classical growth characteristics of primula plants were notsignificantly different across growing media. K, Mg, S and Na contents of theplants were generally at normal levels. However, significant differences werefound in total Fe, Mn and Cu contents of plants. Fe amount was enough but Mnand Cu were lower than the acceptable levels in all media. All in all, primulaplants were grown successfully in all media and reached saleable quality levelsdespite of the differences in some nutrient contents. It was suggested that NAPcan be used as an alternative to IMP for horticultural purposes, such as aproduction of ornamentals in a greenhouse.</p></abstract>

                            <p>Primula bitkisinin yetiştirme ortamı olarakyosun kökenli ithal organik toprak (İOT) ve Akgöl/Türkiye den elde edilen yerliorganik toprak (YOT) kullanılmıştır. İOT ve YOT’ın temel fiziksel ve kimyasalözellikleri belirlendikten sonra beş farklı yetiştirme ortamı hazırlanmıştır.Daha sonra primula bitkisinin besin maddesi içeriğine hazırlanan ortamlarınetkileri incelenmiştir. Yetiştirme ortamlarının suda çözünebilir NO3-N,P, K, Fe ve Zn içerikleri yetersiz bulunurken, diğer besin elementlerininyeterli seviyede olduğu belirlenmiştir. Ortamların hacim ağırlığı (HA)0.071-0.139 g cm-3 arasında bulunmuştur. Karışımlardaki YOT oranıarttıkça HA’ları da artmıştır. Ayrıca yetiştirme ortamı olarak hazırlanan İOTve YOT yeterli havalanma kapasitesine (HK), düşük kolay alınabilir su içeriğine(KAS) ve çok düşük su tamponlama kapasitesine sahiptir. Katyon değişimkapasitesi (KDK) değerleri ise 83.32-105.70 me 100 g-1 olarakbelirlenmiştir. Ortamların pH ve EC değeri sırası ile 4.56-5.88 ve 0.39-1.00 dSm-1 arasında değişmiştir. Karışımlarda YOT oranı % 75&#039;den fazlaolduğunda, pH düzeyi istenilen sınırların biraz dışındadır. Organik C ise, %100 İOT karışımında en yüksek seviyededir. Farklı yetiştirme ortamlarıbakımından primula bitkisinin klasik büyüme özellikleri ve kalite parametreleriarasındaki farklılıklar önemli değildir. Bitkilerin toplam K, Mg, S ve Naiçerikleri genel olarak normal seviyelerdedir. Bununla birlikte, bitkilerintoplam Fe, Mn ve Cu içeriklerinde önemli farklılıklar bulunmuştur. Tümortamlarda Fe miktarı yeterli iken, Mn ve Cu miktarları kabul edilebilirseviyelerden daha düşüktür. Sonuç olarak, primula bitkileri tüm ortamlardabaşarılı bir şekilde yetiştirilmiş ve bazı besin içeriğindeki farklılıklararağmen satılabilir kaliteye ulaşmıştır. YOT’ın İOT’a bir alternatif olarak veserada süs bitkileri üretiminde kullanılması önerilmiştir.</p></trans-abstract>
