  2. Seed testing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Seed_testing

    The Tetrazolium Chloride (TZ) test, often called the quick germination test, is a chemical test used to determine seed viability, and results are usually available within 24 to 48 hours The TZ test differs from a germination test in that the TZ test can give you an early and quick snapshot of seed viability but is not a replacement for the more comprehensive seed germination test.

  3. Germination - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Germination

    It is a measure of germination time course and is usually expressed as a percentage, e.g., an 85% germination rate indicates that about 85 out of 100 seeds will probably germinate under proper conditions over the germination period given. Seed germination rate is determined by the seed genetic composition, morphological features and ...

  4. Physical properties of soil - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Physical_properties_of_soil

    Soil temperature regulates seed germination, [70] breaking of seed dormancy, [71] [72] plant and root growth [73] and the availability of nutrients. [74] Soil temperature has important seasonal, monthly and daily variations, fluctuations in soil temperature being much lower with increasing soil depth. [ 75 ]

  5. Stratification (seeds) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stratification_(seeds)

    Seeds of many trees, shrubs and perennials require these conditions before germination will ensue. [citation needed] In the wild, seed dormancy is usually overcome by the seed spending time in the ground through a winter period and having its hard seed coat softened by frost and weathering action. By doing so the seed is undergoing a natural ...

  6. Soil formation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Soil_formation

    Soil formation, also known as pedogenesis, is the process of soil genesis as regulated by the effects of place, environment, and history. Biogeochemical processes act to both create and destroy order ( anisotropy ) within soils.

  7. Seed enhancement - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Seed_enhancement

    Seed enhancement is a range of treatments of seeds that improves their performance after harvesting and conditioned, but before they are sown. They include priming, steeping, hardening, pregermination, pelleting, encrusting, film-coating, tagging and others, but excludes treatments for control of seed born pathogens .

  8. Aerial seeding - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aerial_seeding

    Adequate soil moisture for germination and establishment of seed requires that the top 0.5 -1 inch be moist. These conditions should be at the time of the seeding or within 10 days of the seeding. If the required soil moisture is not present at these times, the seeds may become the target of predation by insects and other animals.

  9. Soil test - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Soil_test

    A soil test is a laboratory or in-situ analysis to determine the chemical, physical or biological characteristics of a soil. Possibly the most widely conducted soil tests are those performed to estimate the plant-available concentrations of nutrients in order to provide fertilizer recommendations in agriculture.
