Right now im just seeding them seems to take root and will pop any moment.
seeded 2/20/2020
It took 1 day of shot glass dunk method, which was 2oz bottled water in shot glass for 12 hours floating at the 13th hour it sunk. i tried to tap it to go under at 12 and 13th hour before it sunk
gave another 12 hours had small tail already starting.
Placed for 3 days inside paper towel in 1 gallon ziplock using water from 2oz shot glass.
on day 5 i sewed directly into soil only had 4-5mm tap root.
starting from when seed was placed in soil on day 6 but we will refer to this as the start day of our journal from here on out.
placed the seed directly in my burpee expanding seed starter mix, mixed with 10lb bag of black gold all purpose soil I also put in 1/4 cup of blood and bone meal each respectively into the soil. filled my tray which appears to be about 2l pots not entirely sure.
5 days in tray seems like watering today it is about to pop up through the soil and stand on its own by day 6 in soil. so we are on day 11 respectively Still maintaining keeping the moisture accurate in the mixture. not really looking for metered watering currently. Have only used 1/4 gallon of my mix between 6 different seed strains.
Im expecting 1 week in soil by 3/3/2020 it will be starting to be measurable and accurately approached to all aspects of its life cycle.
Update 3/2/2020: it has sprouted and is above soil in Cotyledon stage. One is standing straight up and other is canoo'd. Put a dome over it just to ensure they arent drying out. Soil is still moist holding on watering til tomorrow at least. Wiill see if humidity dome helps it straighten out. added final photo of the week before starting week 2 3/2/2020
