Influence of fluorides upon vegetation. Preliminary tests in gardon uses

Abstract

Pulverized birchwood charcoal extracted with hot acids and washed in boiling water gave a soil medium containing 1.87 mg F per kg. The soil was composed of purified charcoal, 1000 g; Al/sub 2/O/sub 3/ as a jelly, 120 g; CaCO/sub 3/, 730 g (F = 0.002), humus, 27.3 g; very fertile garden soil, 66.0 (F = 0.007); CaHPO/sub 4/, 24 g; KNO/sub 3/, 34 g; (NH/sub 4/)/sub 2/ SO/sub 4/, 30 g; NaCl, 3.0 g; MgCO/sub 3/, 68 g; MnCl/sub 2/, 0.80 g, ZnCO/sub 3/, 0.07; SiO/sub 2/ as jelly, 17.0; FeSO/sub 4/, 180.0; NaAsO/sub 4/, 1.4 g. This entire mixture contained 11 mg F per kg. Plants were grown in three four-liter pots, A, B, C. The pots contained the above mixture, one with charcoal, another with KF. Pot C contained good garden soil for control. The effects of F were estimated by measuring the height of the plant and when the seed was produced, the weight of the seed. Fluorine exerted a favorable influence upon Gressin alenois, cabbage; Spergula arvensis, Escholtzia California, spinach, yellow day-lilly, viperine, Oignon communis and hemp. An unfavorable influence was observed with dwarf peas and sweet peas.
