- Abstract
This paper represents a part of broader research program conducted within CCDCPN Dăbuleni-Romania, on a crop of watermelons created in open field. The aim of the study was to present the obtained results regarding the comparative study of two varieties -autochthonous variety Oltenia and Romanza F1 hybrid derived from import - to establish and recommend the cultivar with superior productivity characteristics, depending on planting density, applying mulching technology and fertirrigation.The two studied cultivars were planted on three densities, namely: 3000 plants/ha, 4000 piants/ha and 5000 plants/ha, in mulched culture, both grafted and also un grafted. The decrease in the number of plants/ha from 5000 to 3000 plants/ha, leads to the increasing of fruits number per unit area, the density of planting influencing the total fruits production, as defining technological sequence for the watermelon culture.
