Seed Germination

This the procedure I used to germinate my seed. This procedure is for lettuce seeds.

1. Fold a brown(if possible) paper towel in half and moisten

2. Lay the moistened towel at the bottom of a plastic container

3. Place seeds about ½ inch apart on towel(if doing more than one)

4. Place cover on the container and keep inside the classroom where it is away from direct sunlight and where the the aircon is coldest, as it cannot be kept in places with the temperature below 22 celsius.

5. Take of the lid of the container to let oxygen in daily for about 10 - 15 minutes

6. Add moisture, if necessary, by spritzing it with water. Spray the towel and the plant to prevent saturation with a spray bottle, if you have one.

7. If you notice mold growing on any seeds, remove them immediately from the container to prevent it from spreading.

Materials needed:

(Brown) paper towel

Plastic container with holes on top

Spray bottle(if possible)

Temperature:
22 celsius at the highest
