Barley Seed Germination If you are a barely lover, you should
know how barely seed germination works. Basically, like all
other seeds, a barely seed has three main elements which are the
following: 1) a seed coat, 2) a dormant embryo and 3) an
endosperm which is used as a storage area. In order to
understand the germination of any seed, including the barley
grass seed, you must understand these three components that make
up the seed. The Seed Coat The seed coat is almost water proof.
It is very hard for water to seep in. That is why you cannot
simply plant the barley seed because it will not grow. The water
will never be reach it. Therefore, the seed must be soaked for a
period of eight to twelve areas in order to soak the seed and
ease the seed coating. The soil must also be kept moist to
maintain that the water can seep into the seed in order for
barley seed germination to occur. The Barely Embryo Within the
barely seed, lies the embryo. The embryo consists of three
components: the cotyledon which is the le
