Abstract

Fly ash contains K, P and trace elements which are the essential nutrients for plant growth. Cow dung has a lot of N element. It’s a good way to mix the fly ash with cow dung according to a certain proportion as an artificial soil for plant growth. This design can offer different kinds of essential nutrient elements and make the fly ash which is difficult to control harmless. This experiment mixes fly ash with cow dung in different proportion, then with different qualities of sand. A pot experiment of planting corn is carried out to observe the morphological changes and measure the dry weight of corn, pH and EC of an artificial soil. The result shows that B0 mixture (fly ash: cow dung is 2:1 with no sand) is best for corn growth. Using an artificial soil of a certain proportion of fly ash and cow dung mixed to plant corn is feasible.
