how long for seeds to break soil?

ok, so i used the paper towel method for my seeds they had tails growing out the seed. i just put them right into soil (root down) sooo my question is when should i expect them to pop out the soil? this stage is real boring! plant them and wait i guess!

thanks for answering buddy appreciate it.. THIS WILL BE THE LONGEST WEEK EVER! LOL

ive got the lights on them now just cus nights are cold its 78 where they r with the lights ... i know they dont NEED light but light couldnt hurt could it? just a few cfls.. btw i got automatic white russians anyone familiar with these height high or anything?

the best thing to do to encourge root growth is put a heating mat under it..ive had seeds take up to 2 weeks before sprout but they were few and far between

It's way too early to be getting impatient. You have at least the next 2 months to look forward to.

mine only took 1 day to come out
