Solanum nigrum L. is a Cd hyperaccumulator, but the potential for continuous remediation, or different planting methods have not been fully characterized. The potential for continuous phytoremediation of Cd-contaminated farmland soil (2.08 mg kg⁻¹ Cd) by 2 planting methods (flowering harvest twice a year and maturity harvest once a year) was studied in a 3-year pot experiment. The total Cd accumulation (ug plant⁻¹) of the 3-year flowering stage treatments was 26.3% higher than that of the maturity stage treatments, which was mainly due to that flowering harvest twice a year caused 65.5% increase of shoot biomass. Similarly, the Cd decreased concentration in soil and Cd removal rate in the flowering stage treatments were 29.2% and 27.9% higher than that in the maturity stage treatments, respectively. After 3 years of phytoremediation, the extractable Cd concentration in soil was reduced by 36.4% in the flowering stage treatments and by 27.6% in the maturity stage treatments, which also led to the same decreasing trend of Cd accumulation of S. nigrum. In conclusion, the study results have demonstrated that the planting mode of two harvests a year at the flowering stage seems to be a viable option to apply for continuous phytoremediation of Cd-contaminated farmland soil.
