Maximum germinants/unit of seed as a tool for calculating bareroot and container sowing calculations

The concept of Maximum Germinants per unit of seed (MG/unit) recognizes the fact that the germination percentage used in sowing calculations is directly related to a particular stratification treatment. By including the stratification requirements for a seed lot into the sowing calculations, MG/unit of seed helps to improve the correlation between laboratory and actual nursery germination.
