Soil Test of Peas Showing Typical Seedling Development SEED TESTING Asgrow Seeds are Tested in Terms of Field Performance Our reason for testing seeds for germination is to determine their ability to develop into normal plants under favorable field conditions. We have found that the only reliable method of determining the germination percentage of seeds in terms of field performance is to make actual growing tests in soil.

We have found that the only reliable method of determining the germination percentage of seeds in terms of field performance is to make actual growing tests in soil. This method permits our seed analysts to evaluate the plant producing ability of our seeds by observing completely developed seedlings and also to interpret germinator tests in terms of soil tests. A greenhouse and several controlled germinating rooms are used to make soil tests where growing conditions are properly regulated to allow the developing plants to continue long enough to show whether the seedlings are capable of continued Please note that these images are extracted from scanned page images that may have been digitally enhanced for readability - coloration and appearance of these illustrations may not perfectly resemble the original Associated Seed Growers, Inc; Henry G.
