Does anyone know what anomaly this is on my little plant?

Good morning guys, could anyone tell me what anomaly this is in the little plant that is coming out of the seed? That is, a cotyledon stuck and did not come out, the 2 real leaves started wanting to come out, but they seem to be impeded by the rest of the remaining bark.

I had the impression in the last few days that her development is very slow. Since I have other seeds of the same species planted in the same way, on top of the same light and water and they are healthy.

Welcome to the community!

The seed pod, like you said, is stuck to the seedling. It happens sometimes. You can spray the plant with water and cover with a make shift humidity dome. That should help the seed soften and allow the plant to grow out of it.

@shindig153 has you covered .but if it doesn’t come off naturally my misting with a little water. I have used a couple of toothpicks and very gently spread the cap apart an pop it off.

That’s a good idea. Never thought about using toothpicks.
