The Use of Dewpoint Hygrometry to Measure Low Water Potentials in Soilless Substrate Components and Composites
Plant water availability in soilless substrates is an important management consideration to maximize water efficiency for containerized crops. Changes in the characteristics (i.e., shrink) of these substrates at low water potential (<−1.0 MPa) when using a conventional pressure plate-base can red...
