The effect of the liquid plant growth stimulant seaweed seychelles on the germination of seeds of microgreens of coral radish (Raphanus sativus var. Sativus)
Abstract
The article presents the results of a model experiment to study the effect of a liquid plant growth stimulant Seaweed Seychelles on the germination of seeds of microgreen of coral radish (Raphanus sativus var. Sativus). Seaweed is a source of natural plant growth hormones. Each of them is an important biostimulant of health. Auxin is known for its positive effect on the roots. It is used in synthetic hormones for rooting. Seaweed contains more than 60 trace elements and nutrients. First of all, it is potassium, nitrogen, phosphorus, iodine, manganese, molybdenum and boron. In the course of this study, it was found that the liquid plant growth stimulant Seaweed Seychelles significantly increases the germination of seeds of coral radish (Raphanus sativus var. Sativus). Seed germination was 98%. The phosphorus content increased by 14.5%, and the nitrogen content by 30%, the pH remained neutral. Seaweed Seychelles liquid stimulant actively affects radish sprouts and contributes to an increase in growth rate and quality.
