The invention discloses a method using Artemisia selengensis to remedy soil mildly and moderately polluted by heavy metal. The method includes the steps of firstly, selecting Artemisia selengensis variety; secondly, preparing a field, to be more specific, applying thoroughly decomposed organic fertilizer, evenly raking and flatly ploughing soil and the fertilizer, and ridging; thirdly, performingpre-emergence weeding, to be more specific, spraying a pre-emergence herbicide before cuttage, and performing soil spraying processing; fourthly, raising seedlings by cutting, to be more specific, collecting robust Artemisia selengensis branches from the field, cutting off leaves and tender shoots on the middle and lower portion, compacting the soil after the cuttage, and watering to allow the water content of the soil to be saturated; fifthly, performing water management, to be more specific, keeping the field moist due to the fact that Artemisia selengensis is a wetland plant and is intolerant to drought; sixthly, performing field weeding, to be more specific, performing manual weeding to remove cyperaceae and dicotyledonous weeds; seventhly, performing disease and pest control; eighthly, harvesting the overground part of Artemisia selengensis, and removing withered branches and leaves from the field; ninthly, performing harmless treatment on the harvested Artemisia selengensis. Themethod is practicable, simple to operate, low in cost, high in heavy metal removing efficiency and capable of satisfying the remediation and treatment requirements of the soil mildly and moderately polluted by heavy metal in southern China.
