Abstract

The article presents the results of an experimental study of the hydrogen index on the universal EV-74 ionomer (pH-millivoltmeter). Water activation has been carried out in an autonomous device, consisting of a membrane (porous partition) with pore sizes from 5 to 100 microns, the thickness of which is 1–2 mm and metal electrodes lowered into a vessel with water. The membrane area was 25–30 cm2. The influence of water properties on the germination, growth and development of vegetable crops has been performed on the following types of water: ordinary tap water (for control), pH=7; cathode (alkaline) water (R-water), pH > 7 and anode (acidic) water (L-water), pH < 7. The effect of activated water on water metabolism, growth and formation of cucumbers has been carried out periodically for 30 days on Konkurent cucumber variety. It is shown that the degree of germination of cucumber seeds compared to irrigation of ordinary tap water is higher when using catholyte water (R-water) by 50.7% and anolyte water (L-water) - by 132.8%, i. e. the use of activated water, obtained on the basis of electrophysical ionization, promotes the growth and development and germination of cucumber seeds.
