No, seeds will not germinate in cooking oil. Germination requires moisture, oxygen, and suitable temperatures, which cooking oil does not provide. The oil creates a barrier that prevents water from reaching the seed and can also suffocate it by blocking oxygen. Therefore, for successful germination, seeds need to be in a suitable growing medium like soil or water, not in oil.
