Aloha fam I did a 72 hour float soak on this one the shell cracked open but didn’t have a tail yet but when I grabbed the glass with my shaky hands the seed dropped to the bottom of the glass so I put it in some wet coco with some kale seeds I just started that day and still nothing I don’t really want to disturb it but what do you guys think any ideas it is under 12 on 12 off led light since I put it in the coco any advice is welcome

Awwww man I was hoping that was not the case but kinda had that feeling it’s not going to sprout first time using seed from Growers choice hopefully the other 2 aren’t the same 
not a good start think I might just stick to my seeds from ILGM out of the 6 me and my uncle have germinated only one failed anyways mahalo for taking a look and chiming in I’ll try and start another one just don’t like waisting them 
Try 24h lighting. What are your temperatures? They like to be kept warm at this stage.

Leave it Grow Bro and they don’t need light to break ground. When it does run your light 24/0 the first 2 weeks

Looks like your missing a seedling heat mat. Seedlings germ best in 80 degrees, IME.

That’s often my reasoning for light at 24h, keeps temps up consistently

@Docnraq im in Hawaii and have no AC or central cooling so I haven’t invested in a heat pad although I would like to in the future but my room gets HOT well over 80 lol

@Underthestairs im not sure the light temp of this one is it’s just 4 little LED’s (Timu item) but I was using them in hope that it would give it that little extra boost of warmth even though it’s already hot as hell in that room but since it’s not really doing anything anyways I think I’ll just let it sit for another day or two and if I see anything pop up I’ll start running the light 24 like you and @OGIncognito suggested thank you guys let her go for another couple days and let you know how it goes MAHALO NUI

So the last one was a dud so started with another one same Growerschoise seed this time didn’t do the same method I always use did it per their specific instructions still after sitting in a damp paper towel after 7 days just cracked open no tail so last ditch effort put it in a pot 50/50 mix of Oceanforest and happy frog soil with some Micro in the hole and hoping for the best probably last time I ever order from growerschoise think I’ll just stick to ILGM for all my seed needs
Fingers crossed she goes

UPDATE so the second one was a dud too so I started all over with my last bean I went old school right into the pot with humidity dome and 2 days later
I think I finally see a little sprout things are looking up
hope I can get a 1-2 still a unsatisfactory considering I only got 3 beans
Very nice! Now just make sure you stay light on water and keep her under dome till she’s really ready to stretch her legs
