SEED-BUYING BASICS

Read the label with confidence.

Pack size
Compare equal counts or weights. Seed count and seed weight cannot be converted without suitable variety or lot information.
Seed lot
A batch reference connects the seed to supplied test information and your purchase. Keep the label and order reference.
Germination
Use the supplied test result and date as evidence. Germination and establishment in your field are different measures.
Treatment
Check the stated treatment and follow the product label and handling instructions.
Growing environment
Open-field or protected-growing descriptions provide context; they do not guarantee suitability for your conditions.
