Applicant's summary and conclusion

Conclusions:
Under the conditions of this terrestrial plant growth test no toxicity of the substance was observed at the limit concentration 1000 mg/kg dry soil in Lactura sativa and Avena sativa. After exposure to the substance the NOEC for the emergence of seedlings as well as for growth inhibition was >1000 mg/kg dry soil for both species tested.
Executive summary:

Under the conditions of this terrestrial plant growth test no toxicity of the substance was observed at the limit concentration 1000 mg/kg dry soil in Lactura sativa and Avena sativa. After exposure to the substance the NOEC for the emergence of seedlings as well as for growth inhibition was >1000 mg/kg dry soil for both species tested.
