4.1.1 The effect of soil depth on soil temperature among treatments in different growth stages

The soil temperatures that varied with soil depth of the six treatments were shown in Fig.4-2.

Figure 4-2 showed that the mulching temperature was higher than the control during the whole growth period, the temperature of plastic film was the highest, the temperature of black film was higher than the biogas residue fibre film, and the temperature of A, B, C of the biogas residue fibre film was slightly higher than the control. It could be seen from the temperature curve of am7:00 and pm 14:00, soil temperature gradually decreased with the soil deepening, but, the temperature of soil surface decreased at pm 19:00, the soil temperature slightly increased with soil deepening in the stage of revival and flowering, and the soil temperature was constant in maturity; mulching had a certain warming effect in the stage of revival and flowering, and had not warming effect in maturity, the reason was that the film had been degraded.
