This research was carried out in the hydroponics production field at Selcuk University, Cumra School of Applied Sciences between the dates of 01.09.2019 and 28.02.2020. This study was conducted in order to determine the effects of different growing medium (Co: control, Wp: wood powder, Pe: perlite, and Tu: turf (cocopeat)), substrates (Cf: cotton fiber, Pf: polyester fiber, Pm: polyester mesh), and irrigation method (Sp: sprinkler, Ti: tidal, and Fp: fogponic) applications on soilless roll sod, the following characteristics were examined: fresh grass yield (g m² -1), dry matter rate (%), dry grass yield (g m² -1), plant height (mm), emergence speed (day), covering speed (day), root length (cm), overall appearance (1-9), shoot diameter (mm), tiller number (number cm2 -1), leaf blade length (cm), leaf blade width (mm) and the index value (leaf blade length/leaf blade width). It was observed that there was no statistical difference between the applications in terms of overall appearance values. When root length and tiller number values, which are among the important growth parameters in the soilless roll sod production, application conveniences, biodegradability, and production costs are considered together, "Tu" growing medium, "Cf" substrate and "Sp" irrigation method applications came to the fore. To be able to obtain more realistic recommendations on this issue, land applications should be included in future research.

Araştırma, 01.09.2019 ile 28.02.2020 tarihleri arasında, Selçuk Üniversitesi Çumra Uygulamalı Bilimler Yüksekokulu hidroponik üretim alanında yürütülmüştür. Çalışma, farklı yetiştirme ortamı (Co; kontrol, Wp; odun tozu, Pe; perlit ve Tu; torf (cocopeat)), altlık (Cf; pamuk elyaf, Pf; polyester elyaf ve Pm; polyester elek) ve sulama yöntemi (Sp; yağmurlama, Ti; gel-git ve Fp; fogponik) uygulamalarının topraksız rulo çim üzerine etkilerini belirlemek amacıyla yürütülmüş ve yeşil ot verimi (g m² -1), kuru madde oranı (%), kuru ot verimi (g m² -1), bitki boyu (mm), çıkış hızı (gün), kaplama hızı (gün), kök uzunluğu (cm), genel görünüm (1-9), sürgün çapı (mm), kardeş sayısı (adet cm2 -1), yaprak ayası uzunluğu (cm), yaprak ayası genişliği (mm) ile indeks değeri (Yaprak ayası uzunluğu/Yaprak ayası genişliği) özellikleri incelenmiştir. Genel görünüm değerleri bakımından uygulamalar arasında istatistiki farklılığın olmadığı görülmüştür. Topraksız rulo çim üretiminde önemli gelişim parametrelerinden kök uzunluğu ve kardeş sayısı değerleri uygulama kolaylıkları, biyo çözünürlük ve üretim maliyetleri birlikte dikkate alınarak değerlendirildiğinde Tu yetiştirme ortamı, Cf altlık ve Sp sulama yöntemi uygulamaları ön plana çıkmaktadır. Bu konuda daha gerçekçi tavsiyeler için ileride yapılacak araştırmalara arazi uygulamaları dahil edilmelidir.
