The study was carried out in the research greenhouse, within the Horticultural Products Quality Research Center in 2022. A variety of oak leaf lettuce, Kineta, was grown on the mattresses filled with perlite. The nutrient solution was administered in 3 concentrations (EC), namely .5 mS/cm2, 2.5 mS/cm2 and 3.5 mS/cm2. Three pH levels were used for each EC type. Differences were found between the experimental variants regarding the variety's reaction to these treatments. The aim of the study was to see the influence of the nutrient solution concentration on some production and quality parameters of lettuce grown on perlite substrate.
