Abstract

The article presents the results of studies on the cultivation of various cultivars of Swiss chard and spinach under unheated greenhouse conditions in the Tashkent region. Particular attention was paid to their phenological development, morphological traits, and yield performance. The experimental results revealed that several cultivars demonstrated earlier maturity, higher biomass accumulation, and superior total yield compared with the control variants.
