I like to soak my beans in mason jar for atleast 12hrs before germination.
They need to be wet, dark, slightly warmer than room temp.

They do need some air here in there.
If in a sealed container open 2-3 times a day.

1.I put mine in a folded napkin that was soaked.
2.I place them on a kitchen plate and put in cabinet.
3. Try not to forget about them.
Within 24-72 hrs some should start popping.

Always plan for low birth and survival rate when growing.
You may end up with more.
This is better than little or none.
