  2. Seed dormancy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Seed_dormancy

    Under natural conditions non dormant seeds released late in the growing season wait until spring when the soil temperature rises or in the case of seeds dispersed during dry periods until it rains and there is enough soil moisture. Seeds that do not germinate because they have fleshy fruits that retard germination are quiescent, not dormant. [11]

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oldest_viable_seed

    The oldest viable seed that has grown into a full plant was a roughly 2,000-year-old Judean date palm seed, recovered during excavations at Herod the Great's palace on Masada. It had been preserved in a cool, dry place, not by freezing. It was germinated in 2005. [3] [4] [5] [6]

    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 ...

  7. Mesembryanthemum crystallinum - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mesembryanthemum_crystallinum

    Older portions of the plant progressively die off and dry out during seed production. The developing seed capsules continue to sequester salt and produce viable seeds. Seeds at the top of the capsule generally germinate immediately on imbibation, while seeds at the base may remain dormant for longer than four weeks. [3]

  8. Dormancy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dormancy

    Dormancy should not be confused with seed coat dormancy, external dormancy, or hardheadedness, which is caused by the presence of a hard seed covering or seed coat that prevents water and oxygen from reaching and activating the embryo. It is a physical barrier to germination, not a true form of dormancy (Quinliven, 1971; Quinliven and Nichol ...

  9. Sprouting - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sprouting

    The soaking increases the water content in the seeds and brings them out of quiescence. After draining and then rinsing seeds at regular intervals, the seeds then germinate, or sprout. For home sprouting, the seeds are soaked (big seeds) or moistened (small), then left at room temperature (13 to 21 °C or 55 to 70 °F) in a sprouting vessel.
