Key Points

This study aims to evaluate how different planting media and harvest times influence the growth and nutritional quality of quinoa.
Factorial Randomized Group Design used to assess quinoa under different planting media and harvest times.
First factor tested was planting media: cocopeat vs. nonwoven fabric.
Second factor evaluated was harvest time at 7, 9, 11, and 13 days after planting.
Cocopeat resulted in the highest plant height and fresh weight of shoots and roots.
Harvest ages of 9 to 11 days led to similar fresh and dry weights of roots, high chlorophyll levels, and optimal fiber content.
7 to 9 days post-planting produced the best flavor, texture, aroma, and color.

Assesses growth and quality of quinoa genotypes under salt stress, indicating media and harvest age effects.
