Are you meaning the corm, which you plant, or the seeds that are produced after flowering? I'm not really sure, so I'll give you information on propagation using either method, if I can.
In a gladiolus corm there are babies that grow on top of the "mother" corm. At planting if there are no babies, plant the corm, and by next year there will be some if you feed the plant. You can dig up the corm after the foliage dies to the ground, and divide the corm at that time. There is no set amount of "babies"...it will vary.
"When growing from seed, sow in September. The seeds generally germinate well and seedlings appear after two to four weeks. Water thoroughly all through the growing season. However, flowers will only be produced from the second season onwards." There is no set number of seeds.
Happy Gardening!
