Abstract

The objective of this study was to develop an economical soil mix for cultivating container-grown landscape trees by evaluating the use of quercus bark as a soil substrate. For this purpose, horticultural soil, granite soil, and quercus bark were mixed in specific ratios. Physically, the higher the proportion of quercus bark, the higher the particle density and porosity, while the available water and buffering water tended to be somewhat lower. The optimal moisture content followed the same trend. Additionally, as the proportion of quercus bark increased, the aeration rate increased and the volumetric water content decreased significantly, even at low water tension. Chemically, higher proportions of quercus bark maintained a stable pH range (5.5－5.7), suitable for crop growth, while EC showed a negative correlation with the proportion of quercus bark. Higher proportions of quercus bark resulted in higher organic matter content but lower available phosphorus content. The cation exchange capacity (CEC) and the exchangeable cations, except for calcium ions, decreased with higher proportions of quercus bark. Growth performance varied depending on the plant species, with reduced growth observed when the oak bark ratio exceeded 60%. Based on the physical and chemical properties of the substrates and plant growth characteristics, mixing oak bark in the range of 20－40% (T1－T2) is recommended. This range not only promotes plant growth but also offers economic benefits to farmers and environmental advantages.

본 연구는 조경수 컨테이너 육성을 위하여 경제적 배지 개발을 목적으로 원예용 상토와, 마사토 및 참나무 수피를 일정비율로 혼합하여 참나무 수피의 상토 원료로써 활용 여부를 타진하기 위하여 수행되었다. 물리적측면에서는 참나무 수피의 비율이 높을수록 입자밀도 및 공극률은 높았고, 유효수분 및 완충수분은 다소 낮은 경향을 나타내었다. 최적 수분함량도 동일한 경향이었다. 또한 참나무 수피의 비율이 높을수록 낮은 수분장력하에서도 기상률의 증가 및 용적수분함량의 감소가 뚜렷하게 나타났다. 화학적 측면에서는 참나무 수피 비율이 높을수록 작물생육에 적합한 안정적인 pH범위(5.5－5.7)를 보였으며, EC는 참나무 수피 비율과 부의 관계성을 나타내었다. 참나무 수피 비율이 높을수록 유기물 함량은 높은 경향을 나타내었으며, 유효인산 함량은 반대의 경향이었다. 치환성 양이온함량은 칼슘이온을 제외하고 참나무 수피 비율이 높을수록 낮았으며, 염기치환용량도 동일한 경향이었다. 컨테이너를 이용한 3종의 조경수 생육은 작물의 종에 따라서 적정 수피의 비율이 달랐으나, 참나무 수피의 비율이 60%이상의 처리에서는 모든 식물에서 생육이 저하되었다. 배지의 물리·화학성 및 생육특성을 고려할 때 작물의 특성에 따라 T1－T2(20－40%) 범위의 참나무 수피를 혼합한 배지를 이용하면 작물의 생육뿐만 아니라 농가의 경제성, 환경개선 측면에서도 유리할 것으로 생각된다.
