Germination of industrial hemp (Cannabis sativa L.) at different level of sodium chloride and temperatures

In this study the morphological characteristic of the industrial hemp ( Cannabis sativa L.) seedlings were observed at different salinity level (0, 50, 100 and 150 mM NaCl) and temperatures (10°C, 15°C and 20°C) in the controlled conditions. In this study, on the 3rd day the average germination energy was 41%. On the 8th day, the germination rate was on average 48%, with the highest germination rate of 55% (150 mM 10°C) and the lowest was 43% (50 mM 20°C). The total length of the C. sativa seedlings was the highest at 50 mM (10.4 cm) and decreased by 2.8% with 150 mM NaCl. From this study it is recommended to use higher seeds rates for sowing on saline soils.
