Cucumber (Cucumls sativus L.) and cantaloupe (Cucumis melo var. Cantaloupensis L.) seedlings have been subjected to a wide range of rhyzosphere pH. Each plant was grown in one pot in water culture. The results obtained showed a great influence of pH on plant root length, root diameter and number of roots, in addition to the subsequent effect on the vegetative growth. The experiment suggests the importance of rhyzospher pH to produce healthy cucumber and cantaloupe seedlings with the maximum root performance. Obtained date were discussed according to the prevailed microlimatic conditions.
