The results indicated that experimental treatment 4 (soil∶substrate=3∶1) and treatment 3 (soil∶farmmanure=3∶2) had outstanding performance. Treatments 4 performed noticeably well in fruit quality,plant height, stem thickness and leaf area. the center and edge of the soluble solids content were 12.47% and 9.87% respectively.
