Excerpt from Growing and Grafting Olive Seedlings: Part I. Growing Olive Seedlings; Part II. Grafting Olive Seedlings

Such a method would be of value also to the propagator, as it would enable him to avoid the useless handling Of worthless seed. AS the good seed is of higher specific gravity, it was possible to separate it from the poor by means of a solution of common salt. The good, heavy seed sank, and the light, worthless seed floated.
