Control of seed production of vegetable crops based on factor of quality is become the basis of modern management. There is a growing need in the fastresponse devices for determination of moisture and temperature in seeds and environment.

Purple horsemint (Monarda citriodora L.) is a perennial plant belonging to Lamiaceae family and being cultivated as aromatic and ornamental crop in many countries of Europe and America. Last years this plant actively gains popularity among gardeners. To elaborate the standard of organization with title 'Seeds of Monarda citriodora L. Sowing qualities.
