Let it soak in that water until the seed sinks...sometimes you may need to tap it and make it sink to the bottom.

Once it sinks...You can either leave it there until the seed splits open or move it to the paper towel and let it continue to germ.

Sounds like you have a thick hull and no water is getting into the shell. I had to germ a Hindu Kush seed for 2 weeks before it popped. I honestly forgot about it almost tossed it. Luckily it didnt dry out .

I am pretty new as well but every seed I have done using the above method has sprouted I have 100% success rate just put the seed in a dark colored cofee mug with water wait 24 hours give it a swirl if it sinks....plant it wait a couple of days and it will break ground

Moist soil is what you need...Not wet soggy soil. Everyday watering is overkill. Get a spray bottle and mist the top soil to keep moist.

ya plants dont need light until they break the surface of the soil.but some ppl have the light on anyway coz they may not be there when there seedling breaks the surface.and i think you need 60 posts to have able to roll a joint under ya name.
