Aloe ferox crossed with Aloe arborescens - 5 seeds

This is seed from a cross I made earlier this year

Pollen donor: Aloe arborescens 

Pollen receiver : Aloe ferox 

Thus seeds were harvested on an Aloe ferox 

The seeds were harvested on 15 September 2024 and they were tested on 22 September 2024 in paper towel at a constant temperature of 25°C 

Seeds sprouted started on day 5 with 80% sprouting from the total amount tested and 90% by day 6. Day 8 saw the final seed sprout (See picture 2). So final results = 100% sprouting with relatively good consistency

Similiar germination rates can be assumed (sprouting = first root or radicle emergence from the seed, germination = soil surface is breached and seedling is about to have its first above soil exposure , germination rate is often less than the percent that sprout since it occurs later and thus in that interval fungus and bacteria could set in  )
