so iv recently herd a curious idea of germinating in a porous sponge.....if anyone else herd anything chime in at anytime tell me more im curious....iv herd that it helps to promote root growth during veggin because the roots can move more freely before plantin in soil .....so obviously more root the better right ...would love to hear more

Where did you hear about sponges ???? How are you going to remove the sprout
without tearing the roots......and if you're planning on planting sponge ?? NO NO NO.......Just germinate with paper towels..Not toilet pap. it dissolves.. In paper towels you can see which are the best & strongest growing...pick those 1st
IMO

The sponge will not work ( period)

plus soem sponges have chemicals in there genetic structure that eats away at roots,

also

they attract mould , fungai, and promote to root rot because they hide and hold stagnent water
