[QUOTE="backhoeboogie, post: 275380, member: 3162"] Sorry Alice. Seed is tested for germination. If 9 out of 10 are good, seed places give you 11 seed when you buy 10. That way you are reasonably assured you get 10 live ones when you buy 10. They call it "PLS" and I think it is an acronym for "percent live seed" but I truly dunno. But if their seed is tested at 95% good, you get an extra 5% above what you bought. So if you buy a bushel of wheat, you actually get a bit more. Wheat and oats differ in fertility. It would make a difference if you were to run up the road to Breckenridge and buy seed from Turner Seed Company. Delta is just another way most engineering geeks say differential. There is even a symbol for it in calculations, a little triangle. I will try to remember and not use that term again. I truly apologize for that. [/QUOTE]
