   While most gardeners start seeds in spring, winter sowing can allow you to plant vegetable, herb, and flower seeds a whole lot earlier. Not only does winter sowing extend the growing season and ...

3. Winter sowing - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Winter_sowing

   Winter sowing is a method of starting seeds outdoors in winter. This is generally done with seeds that require a period of cold stratification. The method takes advantage of natural temperatures, rather than artificially refrigerating seeds. Winter sowing involves sowing seeds in a miniature greenhouse outside during winter, allowing them to ...

4. Vernalization - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vernalization

   In the history of agriculture, farmers observed a traditional distinction between "winter cereals", whose seeds require chilling (to trigger their subsequent emergence and growth), and "spring cereals", whose seeds can be sown in spring, and germinate, and then flower soon thereafter. Scientists in the early 19th century had discussed how some ...

5. 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.

7. Plant propagation - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plant_propagation

   Seeds and spores can be used for reproduction (e.g. sowing). Seeds are typically produced from sexual reproduction within a species because genetic recombination has occurred. A plant grown from seeds may have different characteristics from its parents. Some species produce seeds that require special conditions to germinate, such as cold treatment.

8. 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 ...

9. Priming (agriculture) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Priming_(agriculture)

   Seeds are considered to be an important part of crop life cycle as it influences the propagation of critical phases like germination and dormancy. Seed priming before sowing is considered to be one of the promising ways to provide value-added solutions to maximize the natural potential of seed to set the plant for maximum yield potential with ...
