the seedling will expand and bust out of the shell on its own
I always just try to crush seeds between my finger and a table to test viability
the ones that are hard are usually good
you can usually just take them and plant them right into wet soil to germinate so you dont risk killing them by handling the taproot
harmonicminor Reviewed by harmonicminor on . floating sprouted seeds?? whats up everyone i'm just starting my first grow and i'm germinating my seeds by putting them in a glass of water and letting them sink and crack.....well no seeds have sank in 48 hours yet but one has cracked and i have my taproot at about 1/8 of an inch......should this still be floating?? should I just go ahead and plant it?? sorry if this is a dumb question thats been asked before but i just need to know i want to start it Rating: 5
