ABSTRACT
This research was carried out to determine the effect of the growing bag culture and soil culture practices on yield, earliness and quality characteristics in snap bean growing under unheated glasshouse during late autumn season between 2001-2002 years. In the soil culture practice, directly seed sowing and seedling planting methods tried. Five snap bean cultivars (OzAyse 16, Alman Ayse, 4F-89, Gitan and Sirik 97) used. In the growing bag culture, the harvesting time of all cultivars were lately than the others. The harvesting time of the cultivars in the seedling method delayed about a week to directly seed sowing method in the soil culture practice. It was determined significant differences in terms of pod number/plant and pod yield characteristics between growing practices. According to the results, it was not obtained desirable values about yield, earliness and pod quality characteristics in the growing bag culture practice. However, the growing bag culture will be more important in future and, this practice will provide highly useful practise when we determined suitable medium and used drip irrigation systems together especially in developing countries for greenhouse growing.
