First way-
Place seed(s) directly into growing container, water it, and place a cover or plastic wrap over and wait for seeds to germinate(grow). Usually between 1-7 days depending on the seeds.
Second-
Place seeds between a moist paper towel and place in a Ziploc bag and seal. Wait for seeds to sprout and place into growing container.
Third-
Take a fingernail and clip a small slit into the shell and place in a cup of warm water overnight. The seeds will start to sprout within 1-3 days.
*The fingernail clipping method can be used with the first and second suggestions as well.
Good luck & Cheers!

∙ 14y agoThe best method for Biology or botanical experiments is on a piece ow wet cotton wool.
In the soil, the best method is to plant the seed to a depth which is double the diameter of the seed, cover it lightly with soil and water.

What fruits are monocots?
Bananas, pineapples, dates, and acai are fruits which are monocots. These fruits are characterized by their seeds and the way they germinate.
Does a seed need direct sun light or not?
Most seeds are damaged by direct sun and the majority need moisture, warmth, and darkness to stimulate growth. A few species of seeds need light to aid germination, but not necessarily direct sun.
What is the best way to kill out a century plant or commonly called yuca plant?
the best way would be to just stop watering it as it is an indoor pot plant
What is the best way to germunate seeds?
Rolled up in warm, moist paper towels.
Why can 't seeds germinate in the subsoil?
Seed normally require heat, water and either darkness or light to germinate (the last two depending on the type of seed). In the subsoil the temperature is too low for germination to take place and if it does the cotyledons and primary shoots probably wont have enough food reserves to push the shoot all the way to the surface - meaning the seedling will die
Can seeds germinate in oil?
No , Seeds can germinate only by imbibing water. Oil come in the way for water permeation across the seed coat.
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.
When seeds start to germinate how do they know witch way the root should grow?
By geotropism and presence of moisture in the soil roots determine their way for growth.
Does a seed need sun to grow?
In a way, yes. Some seeds germinate only when covered with soil, but the actual triggering mechanism depends on the wavelength of light reaching the seed. Seeds that germinate in "darkness" require long wavelength light to do so, ie. heatwaves. Seeds that grow on the surface need short-wave light to start germination.
Does Drosophyllum reproduce with seeds or vegetative?
Currently, the only way to reproduce D. lusitanicum is by seed. Scarring the seed, then planting it in a peat pot, then waiting for 15 days, then putting the peat pot in its permanent pot, then letting it grow is the best process for germination. By fifteen days, i mean by the time that the plant sprouts. From then, its best to wait a while before the pot transfer.
How do you grow a flamboyant tree from a seed or is there any special technique or you just put the seed in the pot ant it begins to grow?
Royal poinciana is a fast growing tree. It can grow up to 5 feet per year till maturity. It's essential to bear in mind that this tree requires a lot of space to grow. This tree can grow very tall, but its graceful umbrella like canopy can be wider than its height. Apart from this, you need to understand things like - how to plant the seeds, the type of climate needed for its growth and the pH requirements of the soil. Flamboyant tree seeds are unusual. The seed pods are dark brown and are 60 cm long and 5 cm wide, but the individual seeds are small. These seeds are very hard with a tight covering. This cover does not allow water to seep through. So, if these seeds are planted, the success of germination is very less. Hence, we cannot use these flamboyant tree seeds in this form for growing a tree. They need to be treated before you can use them for germination. There are two ways to overcome this problem. One way to increase the success rate of the germination process is by laying the seeds on a flat surface and rubbing them with sandpaper for about 12 seconds. This process needs to be repeated on the other side of the seed. These seeds then need to be soaked overnight. These seed cover will start peeling off from the seeds. Plant these seeds in a large pot about 20 millimeter deep in the soil. These seeds will germinate in about six days successfully. The second way to get these seeds to germinate faster is to place some seeds in boiling water. Add cold water to it and drop the temperature. Soak these seeds for 24 hours. Sow these seeds in a pot and place the pot in a warm place. The flamboyant tree seeds germinate in four to six days.
What fruits are monocots?
Bananas, pineapples, dates, and acai are fruits which are monocots. These fruits are characterized by their seeds and the way they germinate.
Best way to start seeds?
The best way to start seeds is to choose the right containers, the best growing medium,the best timing, and observing utmost care for them.

How many seeds from a packet for vegetables and herbs should I plant in the individual plant starter pots?
Always plant 2-3 seeds per cell. Sometimes one of the seeds will not germinate, this way you still have at least one coming up. After they have grown a couple of weeks, pick the best one and snipe any others in the cell. Now you have one good growing plant.
What is the Best way to tell if a pot is dry?
You put the pot on the stove and if it sizzles it is not dry and if it does not sizzle it is dry
