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 yellow to the naked eye, and somewhat clumpy. Moderately small seeds are irregularly shaped, have one blunt end, and have moderately small sized elongated embryos irregularly positioned which are 1/3-1/2 the length of the seed. While the seeds have some characteristics of immature seed, this isn't certain, and the embryos may be mature enough.
