Indirect Seeding

• Seeding into the final growing space

• Seeding into a growth medium for transportation to final growing space

• First leaves

• Altering seed coat to encourage germination

Cotyledons

• Altering seed coat to encourage germination

• First leaves

• Seeding into a growth medium for transportation to final growing space

• Seeding into the final growing space

Direct Seeding

• Altering seed coat to encourage germination

• First leaves

• Seeding into a growth medium for transportation to final growing space

• Seeding into the final growing space

Scarification is...

• Altering seed coat to encourage germination

• First leaves

• Seeding into a growth medium for transportation to final growing space

• Seeding into the final growing space

Self Pollination:

• Can occur in the same flower

• Requires pollen from a separate flower

• Indicates the flower has male and female reproductive parts

• Produces Hybrid plants

Cross Pollination

• Can occur in the same flower

• Requires pollen from a separate flower

• Indicates the flower has male and female reproductive parts

• Produces Hybrid plants

Propagation

• Can occur by taking cuttings of grown plants

• Only occurs with seeds

• Only done by taking cuttings of grown plants

• Does not include asexual reproduction

Seed germination does NOT always require

• Correct temperature

• Water/Moisture

• Light

• Oxygen

This is NOT part of the seed

• Embryo

• Endosperm

• Seed Coat

• Cotyledon

The function of the endosperm is...

• Turns into plant

• Emerge from seed

• Provide protective covering

• Provide nutrition in starches
