Abstract
Abstract The amount of light that reaches the leaves is essential in order to ensure a proper synthesis of organic matter at leaf level. When efficiently capitalizing the soil from protected areas, the plant management system for cucumbers cultivated in solariums have to be take into consideration, in respecti with the degree of self-shading and the amount of light received at the leaves level. The research highlight certain differences regarding the amount of light reaching the leaves and the intensity of certain physiological processes depending on the height up to which total shoot removal from the main stem was applied. Plant management system with total shoot removal at three levels of height (50 cm, 100 cm and 120 cm), showed that as much the part of the strain without shoots is lower, the self-shading degree is higher and the values of physiological parameters are lower.
