This test was aimed at studying the effect of Chinese medicine residue compound substrate on tomatoes and the analysis results were examined through principal component analysis and cluster analysis. The results showed that in the principal component analysis of different indicators of tomatoes, the performance excellence of all substrate formulas followed the order of T2 > T1 > CK > T3 > T4. Based on compound substrates and tomato indicators, these five formulas can be classified into three categories: the first type was CK- the fine type; the second type was the improved type- T1 and T2; the third type, T3 and T4 were medium type. In summary, the fruit yield of T2 presented no evident difference with the yield of CK, with a total yield of 3 435 g, guaranteeing the fruit yield. In addition, the content of lycopene, total flavonoids, vitamin C(Vc), soluble protein in T2 fruits was higher than that of CK with a respective increase of 281%, 8%, 98% and 54%, indicating the significantly improved health benefits of fruits. Therefore, the T2 formula was recommended, for the development of low-cost organic substrate formula and high quality cultivation of greenhouse tomatoes. The results of this study can not only solve the ecological pollution by recycling such Chinese medicine residue as substrates, but also provide technical guidance for high quality substrate-bag planting of greenhouse vegetables. %U https://www.hnxb.org.cn/EN/10.11869/j.issn.100-8551.2021.07.1687
