The Germination Explanation

You many be wondering how Spud (and hopefully Bud) are going from a seed to a little green cotyledon(sprout) . Well the key is that the speed was getting the elements right. In order for a seed to germinate, the temperature must be right and there must be water to soak the seed. Some seeds also need light. If all the seed's needs are present, it will start to grow like Spud has done. The food reserves are turned into a form the plant embryo can use for energy to grow. First, the root (radicle) emerges from the seed coat, followed by the shoot (plumule). The root always grows downwards into the soil, while the shoot always grows upwards towards the light.Obviously Spud had the conditions he needed, but many Bud is just a late bloomer (literally).
