effect of light on seed germination?

Question

does anyone know where I can find any good information? or do they know a fair bit themselves?

Answer 1

Some seeds are dependent on light for germination. If you bought the seeds it will usually say on the packet.

Answer 2

Warmth is more important, until germination occurs, when they are actually exposed to light, since most of the time, it cannot penetrate the seed case.
