Abstract
The present investigation was conducted in the Laboratory of Vegetable Seed Technology Research Section, Dokki, during 1995 and 1996 seasons on fennel seed (Foeniculum vulgare var. Doice) and parsley (Petroslinum crispum Mill). The experiment was designed in split plots, the treatments in the main plots were (control, leaching, GA3 100 ppm [Ti] while the treatments in the sub plots were,control and soaking in GA3 for 6hrs, 12hrs, and 24hrs. The results obtained showed an increase in germination percentage and seedlings length while the applied treatments accelerated seed emergence. The best result for germination was by using 24 hrs soaking time and 200 ppm GA3 for both fennel and parsley seeds.
