Effect of Mushroom Residue Used in Washed Soil on the Growth of Tomatoes

In order to reveal the regulating capacity of mushroom residue on washed soil, pots experiments were carried out. The growth of tomatoes planted on washed soil amended by mushroom residue were measured. Mushroom residue can be helpful to improve the plant height, stem diameter, the aerial parts fresh weight, root fresh weight, leaf photosynthetic rates and photosynthesis, and lay a good foundation for the growth of tomatoes. The effect of mushroom residue is the most significant. Among all the treatments of adding 2.5%, 5%, 10% mushroom residue, adding 10% mushroom residue is the best. It can significantly enhance the growth and photosynthesis of tomatoes, and is among the best of these three soil treatments for washed soil.
