dude.... keep it simple, and imitate nature..... its a weed.

put some potting soil(Miracle Grow works just fine) in a 4 inch pot, put the seed in the dirt about 3/8 inch deep, then water. You will see sprouts at 3 - 4 days.

Anything else is either going to damage the seeds, or get the sprouts broken before you ever get them in the dirt.

The more you complicate things, the more chances of having problems and failures.
