Abstract

This work amid to study the potential positive effects of magnetic water under different hydroponic systems to obtain max productivity and quality of water, fresh yield quantity and quality of Chicory. The effect of different nutrients sources (magnetized and non-magnetized solution), two systems of hydroponics (A shape and gutter systems) and three discharges (1.0, 1.5 and 2.0 L h-1) on water quality, nutrient consumption rates, fresh and dry weight of shoot and root and nutrients uptake for chicory plants were studied. The results revealed that the nutrient consumption rates by the chicory plants were higher in magnetized solution compared to those of non-magnetized solution. The highest value of the shoot height of the chicory plant (23.63 cm) was found with the magnetized solution for A shape system with 1.5 L h-1 discharge. The leaf area and chlorophyll of chicory were higher in magnetized solution compared to those of non-magnetized solution. Also, the leaf area and chlorophyll of chicory plants were higher in A shape system compared those of gutter system. The highest value of the fresh and dry of shoot of the chicory plant were 145.47 and 26.12 g for the magnetized solution for A shape system with 1.5 L h-1 discharge. The highest values of N, P, K, Ca and Mg uptake were 3.50, 0.85, 4.32, 1.96 and 0.31 %, respectively, for all treatments.
