Yes, you want it to eventually sink (become saturated and loosen the outer shell). But until then they should float. Normally about 18-24h it takes.

Seeds in 12/12
Does keeping seedlings just the first week under a 12/12 light cycle can hurt them? I have some seeds that are not sprouting after 7 days, maybe it's because the outside temperature is too low so I decided to keep them in my growbox with my other flowering plants until they start

Why Won't The Seed Bank Talk to Me?
So I've reached-out to a Seed-Bank, out west, (BC?) a few times now, their page reads; "Send Us an E-Mail", so we have ... Nothing! We want seeds, strains & I don't get it, are they weirded out? Is it a legality thing? Not sure what the deal is, Canada's Legal Right!?

I used feminized autoflower royal queen seeds for my first grow which turned out a success despite a few mistakes I made. I collected some new seeds from that grow, falling off the plants. These seeds will be feminized as well, right? No danger they are male? Thanks!
