For conservation of species in wild plants seed dormancy is prevalent. Thus only a few seeds germinate in first growing season and rest of these remain dormant in the soil for several months or even years.
Germination ratio is the proportion or percentage of seeds that successfully sprout and begin to grow under ideal conditions. It is often used to assess the quality and viability of seeds for planting purposes.
You should consider replacing seeds for germination if they are old, damaged, have poor germination rates, or have been stored improperly. Using fresh, viable seeds will increase the chances of successful germination and healthy plant growth.
Methi seeds exhibit epigeal germination, where the cotyledons emerge above the ground during germination. This type of germination allows for the efficient exposure of the cotyledons to sunlight for photosynthesis.
To calculate germination percentage, divide the number of seeds that have germinated by the total number of seeds planted, and then multiply by 100. The formula is: (Number of seeds germinated / Total number of seeds planted) x 100. This will give you the germination percentage.
Seeds are selected for germination based on factors like seed size, weight, shape, color, and overall health. Additionally, seeds are tested for viability through methods such as the tetrazolium test, germination test, and cutting test. Only seeds that meet quality standards and have a high probability of germination are selected for planting.
Some seeds that undergo epigeal germination include beans, peas, peanuts, sunflower seeds, and most types of dicot plants. In epigeal germination, the cotyledons are pushed above the soil surface as the seedling emerges.

Germination.
To determine if cucumber seeds are good, you can perform a germination test by placing a few seeds on a damp paper towel in a warm place. Good seeds will sprout within a few days, indicating their viability.
The water itself stimulates the germination of the seeds.
