Abstract: Strawberry pot experiments were performed on compound substrates, which contained different ratios of Dendrobium officinale cultivation waste (DOCW) or mushroom residue (MR), and the single component substrates, which contained either DOCW or MR, were designed as controls. It was shown that the compound substrates contained more abundant and balanced nutrient elements, and their physical and chemical properties, such as bulk density, electrical conductivity, porosity and pH value were more suitable for strawberry growth. There were no significant differences in nutritional growth of strawberry among different treatments. However, significant differences in reproductive growth such as fruit quality and strawberry yield were found among treatments. The yield of strawberry in treatment H5 (80% MR+20% soil) and H1 (80% DOCW+20% soil) were significantly (P<0.05) higher than the other treatments, and the contents of total soluble solid, vitamin C, soluble sugar, and the ratio of total soluble solid to titratable acidity in H5 were the highest among all the treatments. Therefore, the comprehensive cultivation effects of treatment H5 on strawberry were obviously superior, and it deserved promotion as compound substrate for strawberry cultivation.
