Auto Blueberry seed been in water for nearly 72hrs

Hi guys. Newbie here. I received my order from ILGM on Tuesday and one seed of each type of my 4 Auto strains went into water Tuesday night around 8pm Australia QLD time. It’s now 8am Friday morning and little Miss Blueberry is barely showing any signs of splitting. The other ladies all split and showed their little tap roots so they all went into their peat pots yesterday.
Any advice on how long to leave her in the water or should I give her til this evening (72hrs) and even if she hasn’t split, just put her in the peat pot regardless?
Any advice much appreciated!

When I received my seeds I dropped an amneza haze and a blueberry, both auto from ILGM. Both soaked for 72 hours. The amneza haze had a good root sticking out. The blueberry was cracked and the smallest root was sticking out, so I transferred them to there forever home. 13 weeks later I’m checking with a jewelers loop and both are at the same stage. I wonder if it’s just the nature of the beast. I have heard of people using peroxide in there water to help the process. I think @Hellraiser mentioned this, he could point you to the person if it wasn’t him. I’ve been reading so much it’s hard to remember who said what.

BTW welcome, new here myself been reading for quite a while before joining.

Thanks all for the welcome!
My primary concern is drowning her if I leave her in the water any longer than 72hrs as it states in the Germination Guide

Another trick is after you soak the seed you can transfer to a warm wet papertowel folder up, sandwich the seed in between the papertowel, place in a ziplock bag then put away in a dark place thats warm. Some people place the ziplock bag between paper plates. I’ve done it this way with success as well.

Thanks @InkedPC I’ve done that style before with very old bag seeds I had and every single one of them turned to moosh. Bit hesitant to do this again. I’m wondering if I should just put her into the peat pot this evening split open or not.

I never finished off what happened with Blueberry seed here. I let her continue to soak and this is her at roughly 80 days of age
