Notes:
(1) You should always adjust for germination percentage. To do so, divide
your desired population by your germination percentage and look that value up in the
table.
(2) Seeds per pound varies greatly not only between varieties but within lot
numbers as well. Each lot number should be checked for appropriate seeds/pound.
