Question: | "We purchased some Chewings New Zealand fescue seed which was said to have shown a germination of 90 percent in a test made by the New Zealand Government Seed Control Station. Our own test of this seed showed a germination of only 12 percent. Can you account for this difference?" |
Source of Question: | Wisconsin |
Answer/Response: | "It has been our experience that New Zealand fescue seed is very uncertain as to germination. The long sea voyage is thought to be injurious to the seed, and furthermore its germination always deteriorates when it is carried in stock over a winter." |
