Table 4

Effect of watering water on the germination speed of okra seeds.

Water type	Average germination speeds (seeds/day)
WTP wastewater	8.43 ± 0.51^a
Dam water	8.89 ± 0.51^b
Dishwashing greywater	8.94 ± 0.51^b
Well water	8.99 ± 0.51^bc
Distilled water	9.14 ± 0.51^c
Interwater comparison	values
WTP wastewater ∼ distilled water	<0.0001
WTP wastewater ∼ well water	<0.0001
WTP wastewater ∼ dishwashing greywater	<0.0001
WTP wastewater ∼ dam water	<0.0001
Dam water ∼ distilled water	≤0.001
Dishwashing greywater ∼ distilled water	0.004

Values followed by different letters are significantly different from the statistical point of view.
