Soil salinity materials
Posted: Fri Oct 21, 2022 5:12 am
I am doing my project on testing retention of salinity in salt after watering with different concentrations of salt water. I wanted to use arid soil as salinity is an agricultural problem in arid regions. However, I went to my local nursery and could not find any. Can you advise on where to purchase arid soil?
Also, I will drain water and different depths of my planter and then use an electric conductivity probe to measure salinity. Would the logic be that the more salt in the drainage, the less that remained in the soil or the more salt in the drained water, the more in the soil?
