Effect of watering water on growth speed and final length of radicles.
| Water type | Growth speed of radicles (cm/day) | Lengths of radicles (cm) |
| Dam water | 0.59 ± 0.02a | 3.54 ± 0.13a | Well water | 0.59 ± 0.02a | 3.52 ± 0.13a | Distilled water | 0.52 ± 0.02ab | 3.10 ± 0.13ab | Dishwashing greywater | 0.48 ±0.02b | 2.88 ± 0.13b | WTP wastewater | 0.45 ± 0.02b | 2.67 ± 0.13b |
