Effects of nutrient solution concentration (NSC) on fresh and dry weights of Ophiorrhiza pumila at 63 days after start of the treatment (DAT) in experiment 1 (n = 8).
| NSC | Fresh Weight (g) | Total Dry Weight (mg) | ||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Leaf 1 | Stem | Root | Total | |||
| Young | Mature | |||||
| 0.125 | 0.9 b 2 | 1.0 | 1.7 b | 0.7 | 4.3 b | 36.6 b |
| 0.25 | 1.3 a | 1.1 | 2.9 a | 0.7 | 6.0 a | 51.3 a |
| 0.5 | 1.3 a | 1.1 | 2.9 a | 0.8 | 6.0 a | 46.3 a |
