Germination

Put x5 seeds in water for 48h then in paper for x2 days and no Taproot or split has happened. Is it worth just putting them in a pot and seeing if they come through? Or would you not waste your time?

Depends on the strain. Is it bag seed or bought seed. If the seed is old or wasn’t stored properly it can take longer to germ. Genetics plays a part too. I never saw the point in presoaking or the paper towel routine. I direct seed in small pots, pre-wet the soil with room temp water before planting and keep it at 78.
