The salt dehydrates the cells inside the plant and the result is death. The concentration of salt is the aspect that impacts on the time it takes to kill the plant. 2 tablespoons per litre kills a small basil seedling one to three days. Here is a pic of one after a few days of the plant under the watering of two tablespoons per litre. (02/28/2009)
