Abstract

This article explores issues related to the pre-sowing stimulation of plant organisms using a magnetic field.A literature review revealed that similar studies typically have focused on only one type of stimulation or one variety.In the present study, a multifactorial experiment was analyzed.The present study analyzes a multifactorial experimental design, taking into account several levels of magnetic field induction as well as three varieties of root parsley (Petroselinum crispum).The influence of magnetic stimulation on selected germination parameters -germination energy and germination capacity -was investigated.Due to the specificity and volume of the samples, custom experimental stands were developed to enable accurate and consistent testing.
