Abstract
The effect of Zinc (Zn) on germination of cucumber seed with different concentrations of Zn solution (0, 1, 50, 100, 150, 200 and 250 mg/L) by soaking seed were studied. The results showed that after seed soaking in Zn solution of the concentration from 0 to 100 mg/L, the germination of the seeds were stimulated, and the cucumber germination rate, germination power reached the highest at 100 mg/L. While the fresh weight of single plant, weight of dried single plant, bud and root length on the seventh day were also the highest at this concentration, all growth inhibition ratio was the lowest. The effects will be poisonous during the germination of the seeds by the high concentration of Zn treatment (100 mg/L).
