Abstract

The “injection method” is recommended for maintaining a constant soil moisture at values lower than maximum capillary capacity in pot experiments. The appropriate amount of water is injected into the soil by means of a puncture needle connected with a syringe. The reliability of the above method in relation to the uniformity of the vertical and horizontal distribution of soil moisture was tested in pot experiments with maize. The fortuity of the changes in the soil moisture distribution within the scope of the given variability restricts the “growth of roots towards the water”.
