Department of Home Science and Management, Federal University, Gashua, Nigeria The Relative Rumidity (RH), temperature, Oxygen (O2) and Carbon Dioxide (CO2) concentration were taken using RH meter and temperature logger. Vitamin A, C, Potassium, Calcium, Phosphorus elements and microbial load were accessed after storage periods. Results showed that the physical parameter, relative humidity, gaseous concentration, temperature favoured water melon and cucumber in hydroponic storage chambers
