All seeds need warmth to sprout.

CONTESTED PARTIAL

Is it true that all seeds need warmth to sprout?
Partly. Gardening columns state that cucumber seeds specifically need warmth to germinate, while an education source lists water, a growing medium and the right temperature as conditions for sprouting. Neither addresses whether ALL seeds require warmth, and the education source does not single out warmth as universal.
