The aim of the research conducted in 2016-2018 at the University of Agriculture in Krakow was to assess the effect of the direct covering of 'Partenon' F1 zucchini plants with polypropylene nonwoven fabric (PP 20 g/m^-2) and polyethylene netting (HDPE 38 g/m^-2). While the covers were in place, measurements of environmental factors were taken. The air temperature and humidity during that period were on average by 2.1 °C and 13% and by 1.4 °C and 7.9% higher on the plots covered with the nonwoven and the net, respectively, compared to the control. Uncovered plants formed the smallest number of leaves and produced the lowest marketable yield. Weed infestation was greater on the plots with the covers by 43% and 56% for the HDPE net and the PP nonwoven, respectively, compared to the control. Laboratory analyses of the zucchini fruit did not show any significant differences in its chemical composition.

Celem badań przeprowadzonych w latach 2016-2018 na Uniwersytecie Rolniczym w Krakowie była ocena wpływu bezpośredniego osłaniania cukinii odmiany 'Partenon' F1 włókniną polipropylenową (PP 20 g/m^-2) oraz siatką polietylenową (HDPE 38 g/m^-2). W czasie osłaniania wykonywano pomiary czynników środowiska. Temperatura i wilgotność powietrza w okresie osłaniania roślin były średnio o 2.1 °C i 13% oraz 1.4 °C i 7.9% odpowiednio wyższe w obiekcie z włókniną i siatką w porównaniu do kontroli. Rośliny nieosłaniane charakteryzowały się najmniejszą liczbą liści i wydały najniższy plon handlowy. W obu obiektach osłanianych odnotowano większe zachwaszczenie o 43% i 56% odpowiednio dla siatki z HDPE i włókniny PP w stosunku do kontroli. Wykonano analizy laboratoryjne owoców, które nie wykazały istotnych różnic.
