Effect of bagging on greenhouse cucumber

Abstract

The study showed that culturing cucumber with film bag increased cucumber yield by 12.3%-15.1%, reduced abnormal cucumber by 65.3%-72.8%, and the shape of cucumber was straight and smooth. The keeping-fresh period of the cucumber prolonged to 20-25 days, its vitamin C increased 21.9%, and total sugar increased to 5. 1%. Paper bagging increased cucumber yield by 7.2%-10.1%, and reduced abnormal cucumber by 52.2%-57.7%. Bag body could efficiently prevent the cucumber from the direct pollution of chemicals spray. The survival pesticides in film and paper bags was 0.760mg · kg-1 and 1.2208 mg · kg-1, reduced by 83.3% and 73.2%, respectively, compared to non-bagging.
