SharePoint 16 has revealed lot of new capabilities for end users, SharePoint administrators and developers. Enhanced hybrid Service applications will bring the world closure to Office 365 and Windows Azure.

You can learn a lot more through SharePoint Server 2016 reviewer’s guide which has awesome use cases and lot of helpful information around SharePoint 2016. You can even download the trial version of of the SharePoint 2016 RTM.

One of the biggest changes in Project Server 2016 is the installation process is that Project Server 2016 runs as a service application in SharePoint Server 2016. The SharePoint Server 2016 MSI file will contain the installation files for Project Server 2016 as well, so a separate installation is no longer required as it was in previous versions of Project Server. Activating Project Server 2016 will require a PID key.

Hi All,

Today we will understand how we can prepare some dry seeds in case we wish to plant trees.

We will 1^st collect seeds from different fruits and vegetables. I collected some orange seeds as shown below:

Now we will wash it properly. Motive is to make sure seeds don’t carry any pulp or it might have fungus on it. Check the image below:

Once we wash the seeds, we will dry them using some napkin or cloth and keep it under sunlight for a day or 2. Seeds must be carefully dried and then stored under the proper conditions in order to give them the best chances of germinating and producing healthy plants when they are planted.

Dry your seeds thoroughly before storing them. If seeds sweat on insides of jars during storage, they are too wet and must be dried further in order to store successfully.

Thanks everyone for helping us save planet.
