Did you know the oldest #seed found that was grown into a plant was 2000 years old? It was a Judean date palm! Our Seeds & Germination paper model shows how it works! Find out more here: buff.ly/OoBLX92

A row of clear, labeled zip bags, each containing a fresh raw seed harvest from an individual plant. Some seeds show a mix of mature colors and immature green hues, highlighting the precision tracking and manual selection process.
One plant, one bag. 🌿 We keep our harvests separated to track every single seed! From raw green seeds to a 98% germination bar, only the best make the cut. Precision is our secret sauce. ✨ 2fast4buds.com/news/breedin... #germination #growingprocess #autoflowers #breedingautoflowers #seeds
The movement of seeds in space-time. The hypothetical two-dimensional space shows how habitat suitability varies across space and time. Seeds can avoid unsuitable conditions in the present by (i) dispersing to a more suitable location or (ii) remaining dormant until conditions change. However, a mix of both processes (iii) can also give individuals a great chance of reaching a suitable habitat. Gray-shaded areas represent hypothetical distributions showing the probability of dispersing to distance x and of escaping dormancy at time t. In our example, the probability of observing outcome iii is greater than observing outcomes i or ii.

The greenhouse is now on a daily watering schedule. We’ve got veggies and flowers growing under the power of the sun, and it feels so good to be working in here again.
It hit 87 degrees in here today, and honestly, it felt like summer!

Model for Clostridioides difficile germination. Top: Model of the C. difficile proteins required for germination during sporulation. From left to right: interdomain processing of the CspBA fusion protein by the protease YabG occurs in the spore coat layer; heterodimerization of CspC and CspA and homodimerization of CspB; and loading of key germination proteins into the cortex region of the mature spore. Bottom right: Model of a C. difficile spore undergoing germination. Sensing of germinant and co-germinant signals (either directly or indirectly) by the CspC:CspA heterodimer (1) leads to the heterodimer adopting an active conformation (2). Bottom left: CspC:CspA heterodimer space-filling model. Residues at the center of the CspC:CspA heterodimer binding interface (I.) play important roles in transducing germinant and co-germinant signals, while residues at the periphery of the binding interface (II.) help stabilize the complex. Signal transduction by the CspC:CspA heterodimer initiates the activation of CspB (either directly or indirectly) (3). Active CspB then proteolytically activates the cortex-lytic enzyme SleC (4), which will go on to degrade the spore cortex (5), allowing for rehydration of the spore core and resumption of metabolic activity.
Unlike other #bacteria, C. difficile must detect both germinant & co-germinant signals to trigger #spore #germination. This study finds that the CspC:CspA complex is a key signaling node that integrates environmental cues to regulate #Cdifficile spore germination @plosbiology.org 🧪 plos.io/4rtCKdZ

Sweet peas that have just germinated, on the kitchen windowsill
If you want to experience hope, just pop some sweet pea seeds in a pot and wait a week or so. It’s unbelievable how exciting this is, every year, without fail. Life persists. 🌱🪴 #gardening #germination #hope
On the shortest day of the year, I put some questionable seeds in moist paper towel to find out if they were viable. By not using potting mix, you can save yourself an enormous amount of space and labor, and you only need to plant the seeds that do sprout. 🌿#gardeningtips #germination #seeds

Cannabis seeds have been planted in the little seedling tray thing from Spider Farmer. It is also on a warming mat in the grow shelf tent thing. Lots of things involved. Like the plastic dome over the seedling tray. That is also a thing.

Two cannabis seeds, one has popped with a very tiny little tail poking out.
Is that a root poking out of your shell or are you just happy to see me?
