SOIL TEMPERATURE CONDITIONS FOR VEGETABLE SEED GERMINATION

Many internal and environmental conditions influence seed germination: condition of the seed, presence of water, sufficient air, soil conditions, and temperature. The chart below lists the optimum soil temperatures at which they do best. This does not mean your seeds will not germinate at higher or lower temperatures, but greater success will be achieved if optimum conditions are provided. Using a probe-type thermometer is an accurate method for testing soil temperatures prior to planting seeds and small plants.
