How long before a seedling comes through the surface of the soil?

With a quality seed it should be about 1-3 days. I had seeds go from seed to 2 inch sprout in 4 days

Thanks for answering, sawleaf. I hope I didn't fuck anything up because I put 8 seedlings in soil yesterday and nothing so far. Put 8 more in today, too. I keep checking on them...maybe it's true that a watched pot doesn't boil.

seeds or seedlings?
If you soaked the seeds and planted them once they cracked open then it should just take a couple of days, but I'd wait up to a week before tossing it.

Seedlings. Yes, I soaked them and they cracked with a little white sprout. I'll give it a week...it's only been about 36 hours for the first batch and I just planted the second batch this morning. I guess I'm freaking prematurely. They're Reeferman seeds from Marc Emery. Thanks, guys.

got 2 new seedling popped up in pots with discarded seeds in,, they have got 2 leaves'' never grown one from seed..what should I do with it bring them indoors or leave them be..what do u think

[maryjanemama]

Do you have grow lights, duppy man? If you do, I'd bring them in (then again, I'm a newbie at this). I think it's always safer to have them inside.

I have x2 400wt HPS with reflectors I just thought it maybe a bit intense,,, its been warm here the last few days in the UK reaching 32 % + in my garden going down to 16% during the night

Maryjanemama, how deep did you plant the seedlings?

[maryjanemama]

I stuck my finger in the soil and made a hole. Then, I put the seedling in...about an inch deep, I'd say.
