Another „made in china“, sorry Italy. Toni Lemoni here.

#citrus #germination #airpot
you see a 1l rectangular plastic pot with four citrus seeds germinated about to be reset to breeding pot named air pot (no headphone!) with holes all under for root self pruning. A heartshaped rootstock is for a healthy tree later to give off a underlay for later crafting to desired grapefruit, orange or citrus.

Pollen hydration, germination, and tube growth are vital processes that involve complex signaling pathways. Here, Kim et al report that OsPRK1/2/3-mediated #ROS signaling is required for #pollen tube #germination in #rice

The rice pollen-specific receptor-like kinases OsPRK1, OsPRK2, and OsPRK3 play a crucial role in reactive oxygen species (ROS)-mediated pollen hydration and germination. This diagram illustrates how triple mutants display male sterility due to decreased ROS levels and impaired pollen hydration, and their germination phenotype can be partially restored by exogenous application of H2O2.

Ok så jeg lytter til bad bitch rap og prøver her 'dry farming' på min enårige grøntsager. Gav mine frø masse vand nu her en gang og har også plantet ud nogle majs som var i polytunnel. Nu lad os se om at de kan klare sig uden deres deltid mor aka mig og hvilken af de frøer er tørk tolerant nok.
Måske dør de alle lol not lol.
Vi får det at vide snart. Big pixelfed cliffhanger.

Jeg bliver ægte hippie fordi min plan er at lave pynte og musik instrumenter med dem.

A small patch with bare soil and a couple of corn and alliums coming up. It's just been sown with a lot of annuals.Another patch with a clear soil path in the middle and the rest is covered with hay.A very good looking polytunnel with a lot of small plants being warm and alive.Some gourds sprouting

A day later. With how fast this "little guy" grew in a single day, I suspect I need to buy more potting soil ASAP, especially once its siblings sprout.

ROPs & ROPGEFs are essential for initiating polar growth in plants, but which ones activate #pollen #germination? This study reveals polarization of specific #ROPGEFs, identifying special roles for ROPGEF8 & ROPGEF9 in germination @PLOSBiology plos.io/3S4rV2d

Left: Localization of mCit-GEF8, mCit-GEF9, mCit-GEF11, and mCit-GEF12 under their respective promoters during pollen germination. Timepoint 0 corresponds to the beginning of pollen tube emergence, arrowheads mark the site of pollen emergence, and asterisks mark mCit-GEF9 localization around the sperm cells. Right: AlphaFold2 protein structure prediction of full-length GEF8 and ROP1 (Rank 1, predicted separately), matched on the PRONE8-ROP4 double-dimer structure (PDB: 2NTY). Different angles are shown, and the terminal regions are indicated by different colors.

Might be a little late, but I'm getting the few seedlings starting to germinate that I can for ETX community garden! 🌱

Germinating well: theretiredparamedic.micro.blog

Seedlings doing well, and more seeds sown. Still a risk of frost.

Finally seeing signs of life from the seeds I have started, and getting ready to start a bunch more. We’re super excited even though we went a little overboard 😳

They looked so manky and worm-eaten* but clearly they want to grow up to become giant beans?

Germination achieved for 'Mikado' (a potato-leaved heirloom and possible ancestor of 'Brandywine'), 'Honey Drop' (an open-pollinated yellow cherry touted as tasting like white grapes), and 'San Marzano' (a plum choice for canning). #tomatoes #garden #gardening #seedlings #germination #vegetables #allotment

Six square pots filled with soilless media and sporting white plastic knives with tomato names written on them with a black marker. The front three have small seedlings.

Let's plant some seeds!
#Germination nation!

About 20 packets of seeds. Tomatoes, peppers, squash, cucumber, herbs and flowers.

Will start onion seeds later this week for #zone7a
Time to find and rig up my homemade seed starting rack/lights set up…. Maybe someday I will lay down the big cash for that specialized one, but maybe I’ll just keep on being #thrifty .

Waiting for seeds to germinate is like …
Come on! Come on! I’m waiting!

The seeds say:
We’ll come when we’re good and ready and not a moment sooner
