Incoming seed is examined to determine embryo count to help decide how much seed should be sown, and/or which capsule would be the best to sow. Permanent sample slides are also prepared. Each separate package of seed is examined because these are generally from separate capsules, which is what we request from our donors.

Comments:
Seed is light tan to the naked eye, and very clumpy. Small seeds are short, have one blunt end, and have small sized oval embryos centrally located which are 1/3 the length of the seed. Many of the embryos are pale. Only the dark embryos were counted as good in our estimate.
