Özet

In this work, the effect of irrigation with textile wastewaters on the growth and development of "Golden Delicious apple sapling was examined over a one-year period. Municipal water prepared as a control sample (T-0), 1/3 diluted (T-1), and undiluted (T-2) raw textile wastewater was used as the three different irrigation water samples. Two replications of each test were performed on three random samples each time. When examining the effects of T-0, T-1, and T-2 irrigation water on plant growth, it was found that T-1 irrigation water significantly increased the weight, the shoot length, and the diameter of the sapling. Despite increasing Ni and Cr metals in the apple saplings' leaves when irrigated with T-2 water, plant growth was restricted due to the lack of basic nutrients. When taking certain aspects into account, such as the proper treatment of wastewater, then 1/3 diluted textile wastewater can be used as agricultural irrigation water for the apple plants.
