For each test frequency there were three replicate experiments conducted using fresh seeds prepared in the same manner: 20 beans of almost the same weight (0.08 g) and similar appearance. 10 beans were grown under a magnetic field and the other 10 were placed 250 mm away from the coil (control group).
