I have found that the easiest way to germinate is this:

Place your seeds in a shot glass of distilled water and cover the shot glass with a cup. Leave it for 24 hours. The next day you will notice that the seeds have cracked open and the tap root is starting to come out. I then use solo cups and the dirt mix that I will use for the entire grow. (I use fox farm ocean forest) Place the seet about a half inch down and cover with the dirt. Water well and then put a ziplock bag over the cups to create a humidity dome. Place your cups under your light. When the seedling sprouts take the bag off and mist for the next couple of days until the seedling looks about like yours do now. That's it. Very simple with almost 100% success. I blame the ones that dont pop on the seeds. lol
