Solution

Seedless grapes are especially cultivated by grape breeders, mainly because people enjoy juicy and munchy grapes without biting on the seeds. During cultivation, some grapes are grown without seeds while some develop seeds. That is why some grapes contain seeds and some do not contain seeds. For growing seedless grapes, a stem is sliced diagonally from an adult plant (existing seedless grape plant) and sections are cut from it. One end of the stem cutting is dipped in the rooting hormone to stimulate the formation of roots. These cuttings are then planted to grow into fruit (grape). The grape formed in this way is small in size and to regain its normal size, it is treated with plant hormone.
