Abstract: The effects of bio-bacterial fertilizer and soil amendment on the growth, yield and disease of spring cucumber were studied in plastic-protected cultivation using a method of field experiment. The results showed that three treatments (bio-bacterial fertilizer, soil amendment and their combination) had a positive regulation on growth performance of cucumber, and caused the plant height and stem diameter increased, internodes shortened. Among them the "EM + 968 + amendment” treatment was proven to be significantly positive. The single fruit weight and yield of the cucumber were also increased by those treatments and the "EM + 968 + amendment” was most significant. In addition, all treatments decreased the disease incidence and disease index of cucumber downy mildew and target spot respectively and improved the prevention and control of these diseases; the "EM + 968 + amendment " was best, the following was the " 968 + amendment ". Therefore, the combination of bio-bacterial fertilizer and soil amendment has a significant positive effect on spring cucumber in plastic-protected cultivation.
