Abstract: During the last few years, experiments have been conducted with potting media and fertilizer as variables. Soluble salts of the media and plant ratings were sometimes determined. Comparisons of the levels of soluble salts and plant growth indicated soluble salts readings are a poor indicator of the potting media ability to produce satisfactory foliage plants. ----- Durante los ultimos anos, se ha conducido investigaciones con diferentes mezclas de tierra y abonos. De vez en cuando se deterrnind" los niveles de sales solubles en las mezclas de tierra y el comportamiento de las plantas. La comparacion de los niveles de sales solubles y el crecimiento de las plantas indicaron que el nivel de sales solubles no es un indicador seguro de la capacidad de una mezela de tierra para producir plantas omamentales satisfactorlas.
