Abstract—Pot culture experiments were conducted by using various % of Soil, Coal Fly Ash and Coal Mine waste as contaminant to study the relative growth characteristics and yield potentials of Leucaena leucocephala .The level of different compositions are Soil (100%), Coal Mine Waste (100%), Coal Fly Ash (100%), Soil + Coal Mine Waste (50:50) %, Soil + Coal Fly Ash (50:50) %.The data on seed germination, growth parameters e.g total length, shoot length, root length, leaf number, total biomass production, chlorophyll, carotenoid and protein was recorded.

Index Terms—Pot culture experiment, Leucaena leucocephala, Coal fly ash, Coal mine waste
