As a threat to meeting the global demand for food created by continued growth of population, different methods are being applied enhance seed germination and plant growth. This study investigates effect hydrogen-rich water (HRW) plasma-activated waters (PAW) their combinations including HRW, PAW1, PAW2, HPAW1, HPAW2 on lentils. Different arc discharge reactors generated under atmospheric pressure in air. Optical emission spectroscopy was used detect radiative species formed plasma zone. Raman spectra physicochemical properties were investigated. The results demonstrated significant differences activated compared control water. On day 3 after treatment, fraction length germinated seeds evaluated. During germination, treated significantly increased parameters such as final percentage, mean time, index, coefficient velocity. exhibited highest index (GI), which combines percentage speed. systems also effectively reduced pH PAW1 with greater decrease observed HPAW1 HPAW1. Analysis nitrite nitrate levels revealed that had concentrations, indicating more reactive processes presence hydrogen. Based our results, it can be concluded lentil using PAW hydrogenated combined.
