Sažetak
The research was attempted to determine the effect of germination stimulator EkoBooster 1 on the early growth of peppers. Research were conducted on the seed of pepper variety Podravka in laboratory conditions on filter paper at temperatures of 20oC and 20-30°C. Seeds of pepper were treated with 1% solution of the preparation EkoBooster 1 for 20 minutes. For germination energy of seeds statistically no significant difference between the treated seed with germination stimulator and untreated seeds at any temperature was founded, but the seed germination was increased with seed germination stimulator treated at lower and higher temperatures. Germination of untreated seeds and the seeds treated with the germination stimulator at a test temperature of 20°C was reduced by 9% and at temperature of 20-30°C to 4%. The percentage of abnormal seedlings and angerminated seeds is increased at all temperatures regime compared to untreated seed. The mass of fresh and healthy seedlings developed from treated seeds are increased at all temperatures tests compared to untreated seed. Based on the results of research it can be concluded that the treatment of seed germination stimulator gives positive effects on the tested properties which is particularly significant in the context of unfavorable temperature in the initial stages of pepper development.
