Seed Establishment

This behavior converts seeds into seedlings.

How it works

This behavior goes through each grid cell in the Dispersed Seeds grid and, for each species to which this behavior applies, converts each seed into a seedling. The seedlings are randomly placed within the grid cell area and have a slightly randomized value of New seedling diameter at 10 cm.

How to apply it

Apply this behavior to seeds of any species. A species to which this is applied must also have a Disperse behavior applied.
