ABSTRACT: The effect of mineral and organic growing mediums on fruit yield and biochemical quality, as well as cost-effectiveness of tomato growing at implementation of reduced-volume hydroponics, has been studied. It has been determined that, during the process of tomato growing, hydrophysical properties of growing mediums undergo changes.
