Doing Plant Generative Propagation

AMIN KUSUMOATI, S.P.


 Some job that we must do on Plant Generative
Multiplying are :

Select seed

Give seed treatment

Germinate seed

Spread seed
Seed Selection

*
seed is a life
starter so to get
high production,
we need qualified
seed
Qualified Seed :

1. Genetically (come from pure


seed suitable with its
species/variety)
2. Physiologically (have high
viability, high vigour and high
germination acceleration)
3. Physically (showed by physic
quality)
Seed Treatment
The aim :

To accelerate germination process

To broken dormancy stage


To prevent seed borne disease
Methodes

soaked in pesticide,
Chemical treatment sulphate acid, nitric acid,
growth hormone

soak seed in harm water,


Phisical treatment hot water or fluctuation
temperature

Mechanical treatment filed, wiper, holed


Seed Germination
The aim :
 To know seed germination percentage
 To get same seedling growth
 To separate seed which good grow and weak
grow
Kinds of Seed Germination

 Small Seed Germination


Small Seed germinate on paper or cloth by
spread out on it or between it
 Big Seed Germination
Big Seed germinate in sand/soil in
germination basin/seedling bed
The factors which influence
germination

Outsider factor

1. seed maturity
2. seed size
3. dormancy
4. germination pursuer
Innert factor

1. water
2. temperature
3. oxygen
4. light
Seedbed

There are direct


sowing seed in the
field but the others
must through
seedbed stage
