Germination. A question

I recently put in 8 seeds for germination. I checked yesterday after 4 days and 6 have all sprouted. But the 2 largest seeds haven't even cracked. Am I doing something wrong? Or the bigger the seed the longer it takes.

I'm using the paper towel soaked in water regime. I put it in a bag and then into my airing cupboard.

This is only the 2nd time I have done this so I'm abit of a newbie at this and any help will be great.

hey, so the biggest lesson from growing is patience. germing sometimes takes up to a week and every strain is different. some good indicators of viable seeds are speckled designs and big, plump, brown seeds. green house seeds co has a pretty perfect tutorial on how to germ...

check that out and do what you can. remember theres always more seeds where those came from

peace

Thanks that guide really helped. I didn't know about soaking them in water first. So is it worth me taking them out of the paper towel and putting them into a cup or is it to late now?

Just let it go, no reason to take them out of the paper towel now
