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 golden tan to the naked eye, and free flowing. Only a small quantity of seed was received. Small seeds are long and thin, sometimes curved. If embryos are present then they are extremely pale and flattened. The seed was sown in case these really are embryos.
