DEF

Étape de la germination se produisant avant l'apparition de la radicelle en dehors des téguments de la graine.

CONT

[...] pour de faibles quantités de semences très sèches, notamment pour le Douglas, le Weymouth, le Cembro, connues pour germer difficilement au printemps, on peut pratiquer une «prégermination» méthodique [...]

OBS

On prendra garde de se laisser tromper par le verbe «pratiquer», utilisé dans la justification ci-dessus, qui pourrait faire croire que la «prégermination» est une technique.
