# Germination — Seed Germination Reference

Quick-reference skill for seed germination science, testing, and practical growing.

## When to Use

- Planning seed starting schedules for crops
- Troubleshooting poor germination rates
- Breaking seed dormancy with scarification or stratification
- Running germination tests to evaluate seed viability
- Optimizing temperature and moisture for emergence

## Commands

### `intro`

```bash
scripts/script.sh intro
```

Overview of germination — phases, biology, key factors.

### `conditions`

```bash
scripts/script.sh conditions
```

Optimal conditions — temperature, moisture, oxygen, light requirements by crop.

### `dormancy`

```bash
scripts/script.sh dormancy
```

Seed dormancy types and breaking methods — stratification, scarification, leaching.

### `testing`

```bash
scripts/script.sh testing
```

Germination testing protocols — ISTA rules, paper towel test, tetrazolium.

### `crops`

```bash
scripts/script.sh crops
```

Germination data for common crops — days, temperature, depth, rate benchmarks.

### `problems`

```bash
scripts/script.sh problems
```

Troubleshooting poor germination — damping off, crusting, seed age, pathogens.

### `enhancement`

```bash
scripts/script.sh enhancement
```

Seed enhancement — priming, pelleting, coating, biopriming techniques.

### `schedule`

```bash
scripts/script.sh schedule
```

Germination scheduling — calculating start dates, hardening off, transplant timing.

### `help`

```bash
scripts/script.sh help
```

### `version`

```bash
scripts/script.sh version
```

## Configuration

| Variable | Description |
|----------|-------------|
| `GERMINATION_DIR` | Data directory (default: ~/.germination/) |
