Salt, which is made up of sodium and chloride, becomes toxic to plants when it dissolves in water and the sodium and chloride ions separate. The sodium ions take the place of the much-needed phosphorus and potassium in the soil, making these two nutrients unavailable to the plant. Chloride ions are absorbed by the roots and transported to the leaves, where they accumulate and interfere with photosynthesis or chlorophyll production.
