AB  - In this study, the investigation of the effect of electric current on the growth of the plants is
accomplished. Soilless agricultural techniques like hydroponics have gained a lot of importance over the years.
Hydroponics is a technique to grow the plant without using the soil. This technique ensures the plant gets all
nutrients needed from the water solution. There are many types of hydroponics technique. This study observes
the leaf growth by applying to the plants an electric current of magnitude micro ampere. The experiment shows
that electric current affects the growth of the plant but the difference is not big. And definitely in the electric
current above a certain magnitude, the plant does not grow.
