yes..I soak 12-24 hours in a shot glass of water.....I have lots of old seeds.
If I don't soak; the shell coats won't break open for the cotyledons.

Sickly plants I must have the worst green thumb on the planet because I can't even keep a weed alive :( - Initially I watered them a lot until the runoff PH showed 6.5 so I might have inadvertently flushed the soil. -Temperatures are 75-81. RH is ~40% I have two seedlings in Ocean Forest soil. One of them has stunned growth and exhibits yellow leafs bent up and weird bubbles. (first photo) - Because of the yellowing curled-up leaf, I flushed it with SledgeHammer flush to remove nutrients. Rating: 5
