IF: Hatch

When a seed falls in the ground and starts to grow, at a certain point the stem and first leaves will hatch and come to the surface (maybe a stretch to the meaning of hatch...).
When I was a child I loved these 'experiments' in biology-class: put a sunflower seed or peanut in the ground and see what happens. I was always amazed by this wonder of nature.
