This research tested five modified Hoagland solutions for proper fertility management of nitrogen in 'Seolhyang' strawberry cultivations. The changes of nutrient solutions were in total nitrogen concentrations (meqㆍL-¹) such as 0 (NO₃-), 2.5 (NO₃-), 5 (NO₃-), 10 (7.5NO₃- + 2.5NH₄+) and 15 (10NO₃- + 5NH₄+). The fresh weight and NO₃-N concentrations in petiole sap responded to the elevated nitrogen concentrations in fertilizer solution in quadratic (y=7.10+2.668x-0.115x², R²=0.7983***) and linear (y=26.14+5.245x, R²=0.6083***), respectively. The dry weight and N content of the above ground plant tissue responded to the elevated nitrogen in quadratic (y=2.140+0.492x-0.022x², R²=0.6110***) and linear (y=0.569+0.033x, R²=0.6952***), respectively. In our experiment the solution with 5 meqㆍL-¹ of NO₃- showed positive results in both dry and fresh weight productions. However, a future research about modification of this solution and growth and nutrient uptake response is necessary to achieve better growth of 'Seolhyang' strawberry.
