Where do plant seeds get their food?
From the seed whence it came from. The endosperm is what contains the most nutrients for a seedling to grow from, so that it can sprout up its first leaves called the cotyledons, and sprout roots down into the soil. Once the plant is big enough to grow on its own and has used up all the energy from the seed it came from, the seed itself (or what's left of it) decomposes back into the earth.
Is soil texture important for plant growth?
No Most seeds will germinate in water. The best way to test seeds for germination is to place the seeds between two layers of wet paper towel and put them in a plastic sandwich bag in a warm place. After a few days, the seeds will begin to sprout. This is also the way I start seeds which are difficult to germinate, e.g., gourd seeds. When the seeds sprout, I take them out of the paper towel and plant them in soil.

Does temperature affect germination?
Yes, temperature can affect germination. Seeds have specific temperature ranges at which they germinate best, and extremes in temperature can inhibit or slow down the germination process. Most seeds germinate best within a specific temperature range, which can vary depending on the plant species.

How do you germinate seeds from apples peaches pears or maples?
Most people that have maple trees would be happy to give you seedlings. However if you take the little maple "helicopters" and put them on a paper towel to dry for three days. Then remove the wings and seed cover and let dry for an additional day. Mix the seeds with an equal portion of sand and put in a plastic bag. Refrigerate and plant in the spring in a planter. After they sprout, let them stay in the planter for two years and replant them where you want them.
