Most pop the ground in between 2 to 5 days. Sometimes it takes longer. Hopefully your soil was fairly moist. Some strains do take longer to pop out of the ground.

ya what kind of soil? Make sure its not too hard for the seed to push any obstacles out of the way. dig down with a pen or something and see whats up

i use the shot glass germination method works more successfully
and plant with taproot pointing up

i noticed when you put the root tip up, they come up much faster, but can grow crooked for awhile very easily.
