Abstract

In this study, the effects of the increasing doses of vermicompost implementation [0 % (VC1), 3 % (VC2), 5 % (VC3), 7 % (VC4)] on some heavy metal contents of cucumber (Cucumis sativus L. have been investigated. With the increasing doses of vermicompost implementation, Cr, Co, Cd, Ni and Pb contents of cucumber decreased. While the Cr content of cucumber is 65.94 mg/kg with the implementation of VC1 (control) dose, it decreases to 20.58 mg/kg with VC4 dose. The plant’s Co, Cd, Ni and Pb contents decreases with the increasing doses of vermicompost implementation, as well, and, VC1and VC4 doses of vermicompost are determined as 7.66- 2.09, 1.05-0.71, 47.93- 14.57 and 15.68- 5.01 mg/kg respectively. These results revealed that vermicompost can be used as a fertilization program to protect the plant’s quality and to eliminate its heavy metal contents. On the other hand, the use of organic fertilizers such as vermicompost should be extended for the maintenance of soil productivity.

Özet

Bu çalışmada farklı vermikompost dozlarının [0 % (VC1), 3 % (VC2), 5 % (VC3), 7 % (VC4)], salatalık (Cucumis sativus L.) bitkisindeki metal konsantrasyonlarına etkisi araştırılmıştır. Vermikompost dozu artışına bağlı olarak salatalıklardaki Cr, Co, Cd, Ni ve Pb konsantrasyonlarında düşüş tespit edilmiştir. Kontrol uygulamasındaki VC1 Cr 65.94 mg/kg olarak tespit edilmiş, ancak %7 (VC4) vermikompost uygulanan salatalıkta bu miktar 20.58 mg/kg’a düşmüştür. VC1-VC4 uygulamalarına tabi tutulan salatalık bitkilerinde Co, Cd, Ni ve Pb miktarları sırasıyla 7.66-2.09, 1.05-0.71, 47.93- 14.57 ve 15.68- 5.01 mg/kg olarak değişmiştir. Elde edilen sonuçlar, vermikompost, bitki kalitesini korumak ve bitkideki ağır metal miktarını düşürmek amacı güden gübreleme programlarında kullanılabileceğini göstermektedir. Diğer yandan ise, vermikompostun aynı zamanda toprak verimliliğini sürdürebilmek için de kullanılması mümkündür.
