Abstract

Comparison of clay and plastic pots for tomato propagation in six experiments showed plastic pots to give significantly better results than clay pots in winter and the converse to be true in summer. In each experiment the ratio of plant growth (dry weight) in clay and plastic pots was related to both the mean daily solar radiation and the mean outside night minimum temperature. In winter, plants in both types of container made significantly more growth when stood on open benches than when stood on benches with solid surfaces.
