Victory Gardeners Must Learn Seed Sowing Mechanics When a victory gardener buy packet of seed, usually it beara terse directions, such as "Sow in the open ground when the weather is warm," "Sow in heat," etc. They sound simple enough, but one accustomed to sowing seed would hardly agree that it is as simple as it sounds. Seed sowing is quite an art in itself, easily learned, but details must be observed for full success. Probably more seed is wasted through poor methods or careless work in sowing than from any other reason. Knowledge of correct methods of seed sowing un doubtedly would increase the good reputation of seedsmen, who are all too often blamed for ill success. The seed in its function as the originator of plant life is a small body, often a very tiny one, which contains a micro scopic plant called the embryo with a quantity of food matter stored in the seed and often in the thickened first pair of leaves known as seedleaves or cotyledons which differ from the true leaves of the plant, which appear later. Sometimes the stored food supply is miss ing in seeds. The whole is sur rounded by a more or less hard and thick shell or coating. Under proper conditions the embryo escapes from this pro tecting cover and the mature plant results. The escape is called germination. At the start of germination, the primary parts that later become root and stem thrust through the seed covering, the root turning downward and the stem up ward. Moisture and tempera ture are the two factors that must be considered in successful seed sowing. In the mechanics of seed sow ing, the first point to observe is never to bury the seed too deep ly in the soil. If planted too deeply it may be smothered before it can find strength to thrust through the soil, exhaust ing all the stored food supply of the seed In the effort. Deep sowing is a most frequent mis take and the commonest cause of poor success with flower seeds. Cover small flower seeds with their own depth of soil. This is the best rule of thumb. Tiny seeds merely lie on the surface. PUD.
