Abstract—The species of lettuces are grown in extraordinary wide variety, nowadays. Hydroponic lettuce growing, make possible continuous cultivation of lettuce all the year. Lettuce is an economically very important vegetable. When grown in a glasshouse, in hydroponics the vegetation cycle is shorter (2 months), because the environmental factors (e.g. climate) are not affecting the culture, the presence of pests and diseases can be excluded, bigger crop yields can be achieved, so this is more profitable. In the course of the experiment, the following doses of magnesium were added to the standard nutriment solution: 50-, 100-, 150-, 200- and 250 mg l-1. The magnesium supplements were added in the form of Mg(NO3)2 solution in our experiment. The treatments were carried out with 4 repetitions in randomized block design.
