Growing degree days (GDD), also called growing degree units (GDUs), are a heuristic tool in phenology.GDD are a measure of heat accumulation used by horticulturists, gardeners, and farmers to predict plant and animal development rates such as the date that a flower will bloom, an insect will emerge from dormancy, or a crop will reach maturity.
White mustard seeds are hard spheroid seeds, usually around 1.0 to 1.5 mm (0.039 to 0.059 in) in diameter, [9] with a color ranging from beige or yellow to light brown.
