Here's a concise description of cauliflower seed germination:

Cauliflower Seed Germination Description
Cauliflower (Brassica oleracea var. botrytis) seeds germinate through a process that begins when the seed absorbs water and ends with the emergence of the seedling.

Germination Conditions:

Temperature: Optimal range is 18–24°C (65–75°F).

Soil: Well-draining, fertile, and rich in organic matter.

Moisture: Soil should be consistently moist but not waterlogged.

Light: Seeds do not require light to germinate but need light once sprouted.

Process:

Imbibition: Seeds absorb water, activating enzymes.

Radicle Emergence: The root (radicle) breaks through the seed coat first.

Shoot Development: The shoot (plumule) follows, pushing upward toward the soil surface.

Time Frame: Germination typically takes 5–10 days under ideal conditions.

Seedling Care:

After germination, seedlings require bright light, adequate spacing, and consistent moisture.

They are usually transplanted when they have 2–4 true leaves.
