White Widow Autoflower

Still waiting on germination. I purchased a five pack of seeds from ILGM last spring, although they all germinated it took almost 10 days. I live in a very hot and dry part of the southwest so temp and humidity are a daily challenge! Those first three plant unfortunately died when the house a/c went down for a few days. the 105 degree temps and 5% humidity done did them in! Needles to say I was heartbroken. That was my first attempt at growing and looked to be turning out well. So here I am, I finally plucked up the courage to give it another go. I know this isn't really week one of growing as nothing is growing yet. Like before my seeds are germinating very slowly. I soaked them for 24 hours and they split right open. I left them in for another 24 (the previous round of seeds soaked the whole time until they were ready to plant, around 10 days). After the second 24 hours of soaking there was no visible change since the splitting of the case. I decided to try the paper towel method and see if that spurs the tap roots to grow a little quicker. Its been about 24 hours since the transfer (sitting in the dark/temp avg 83 f) one of the seeds now has a visible tap and no change from the other. If anyone has some advice to coax the taps out faster...Please advise! I am also up in the air about trying some nutrients made specifically for coco coir. Advanced Nutrients 8560-14AB pH Perfect Sensi Bloom Coco Part A+B, 1 Liter, Brown/A Any thoughts or advice are very much appreciated! As well as anyone in the US ordering from Suzy Seeds. was looking at them for my next round. I will probably stick with ILGM as their seeds showed up to my door as promised within 4 days of my order and have heard only amazing things about their customer service. Just feeding my curiosity!
