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.

Capsule has moldy areas.
Cap had to be scraped to get any material, parts appeared to be moldy. After making a slide, no viable embryos could be seen and all material scrapped appeared to be capsule pulp.
