“…In addition, the EC values of composts 1 and 2 were lower than those of composts 3 and 4, the values of the latter two exceeding 3.5 dS m -1 , the limit indicated by Lemaire et al (1985) for vigorous seedling growth in a growing medium. This result is due to the characteristics of PP, with a higher salt content than VP (12.9 dS m -1 for PP and 2.0 dS m -1 for VP), as was also observed in a previous experiment using both materials as bulking agents (Bustamante et al, 2013).…”

“…In contrast, Gajdos (1997) indicated that EC values exceeding 1-3 dS/m could be detrimental to plants. In containers, however, Lemaire et al (1985) found that only EC values greater than 3.5 dS/m were too high for vigorous plant growth. Based on published research findings (Lemaire et al, 1985;Mengel and Kirkby, 1982;Wright, 1986), the EC value measured for EXSH in this study will likely not create salinity problems when added to soil or potting media.…”

Table 1 shows pH values for EXSH measured in water and in a 0.01 mole L -1 dilute CaCl 2 solution.…”

“…It has known that SMC with high salt content has negatively affected on plant growing (Lemaire et al, 1985). For this reason, SMC was leached at the early of trial and electrical conductivity (EC) was decreased to 1.94 dSm-1 from 9.2 dSm-1.…”
