Seeds of Vigna radiate, Phaseolus aconitifolius and Doliphous Biflorus were treated with growth regulator and planted on soil contaminated with salt of Zn, Pb, Cd, and some salt mixtures. It was shown that during 15 days of germination quantity of zinc in primary leaves of 1) Increased from to 243.75%in compression to control experiment’s and decreased in soil: 95.74 and 85.07 in upper layer 95.83 to 82.04, lower layer 85.72 to 72.74 mkg/kg correspondingly approximately the same was shown for Zn and other metals absorption of heavy metal by a plant was shown to be depended from growth stimulator pretreatment procedure and is connected with exudative activity of roots of a plant. Specify of the process of phytoextraction for each metal and for the type of plant are speculated thus, it was shown that stimulation of root exudative activity by pretreatment with a growth regulative may be successful in cleaning of soil.
