Abstract
Effects of water extracts of matured corn straw compost on cucumber seed germination characteristics were studied.Water extracts with different concentrations from 10 mg/mL to 100 mg/mL(10 mg/mL as concentration gradient) were selected as treatments,distilled water(0 mg/mL) was selected as control.The results showed that concentrations lower than 40 mg/mL improved seed germination percentage,germination index and seedling height significantly,while concentrations higher than 40 mg/mL inhibited the seed in a large degree,and the inhibition was increased with increasingly.The inhibition was significant when the concentrations of water extracts highter than 80 mg/mL.
