Default Re: Experiment on Neps seed germination

Third experiment on further simplification of germination method
-------------------------------------------------------------
Objective: Assess germination without FL. Increase sample size with coco peat, further comparing effect of using cover for this method.
Environment: Direct morning sun vs Non direct morning sun + 2hrs of 2xT5 FL (2x14W)
Species: N.ampullaria Dark Red x ? (2 pods)
Water method: Water tray
Sowed: 20 Feb 2011
Comparing:
1. Coco peat under FL (cover vs uncovered) 50 seeds each
2. Media (SM, coco peat) vs covered/uncovered, under morning sun.

Content:
~ 50 seeds in covered coco peat (FL)
~ 50 seeds in uncovered coco peat (FL)
~ 25 seeds in covered coco peat (Direct morning sun)
~ 25 seeds in covered sphagnum moss (Direct morning sun)
~ 25 seeds in uncovered coco peat (Direct morning sun)
~ 25 seeds in uncovered sphagnum moss (Direct morning sun)
