1. A manufactured seed comprising:
(a) a seed coat; (b) a shoot restraint, wherein the shoot restraint comprises a cavity; and (c) a nutritive media comprising agar at a concentration from about 26 g/L to about 30 g/L, whereby the concentration of agar in the nutritive media lowers the water potential of the nutritive media, wherein the water potential of the nutritive media relative to the water potential of an embryo disposed in the cavity of the shoot restraint is such that an excessive amount of water does not flow out of the nutritive media and accumulate within the cavity, thereby preventing flooding of the cavity. |
