Make sure they are kept around 28c.

Also as mentioned by someone else on this forum a good trick is to carefully split the seed on one side, just a little with a craft knife, it sometimes helps when I do it to seeds that havent germinated after a few days.

using Disstilled water will help make sure that the seeds germinate and I read that if you do use room temp distilled water aperintly your more likly to end up with female plants

The splitting seeds with a knife is VERY risky business, personally i wouldnt advise it. I suggest putting some sandpaper in a matchbox then putting the seeds in and shaking it but not to much.....This is ALOT less risky

ye splitting the seeds when stoned is advised lol. splitting them at all is rather risky as weed guy said. i'm a first time grower as well so i would leave seed splitting to the experienced growers. i germinated my seeds in a day, best way is to buy good seeds imo. higher percentage of success rate. also i used ordinary tap water but boiled it first to get rid of any impurities. then i let the water cool down a bit so the seeds would be wrapped in warmth. keep the seeds near a warmish area, 28 degrees C like someone said earlier is good. btw sorry i also used the paper towel method and it worked fine. hope some of it helped
