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.

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!?

Buon giorno weed doctors, please help understand the issue, maybe smb has seen this before. I lost two seeds of the same cultivar to the same symptoms...TY
Two seeds, same cultivar, 1 week difference, both pop neck bended with white woody spot at the base of one of the cotyledons. Doesn't spray the leaves, the membrane wasn;'t getting off w/o help. And I know it's not substrate - 2 other breeders germinated 100% and look healthy. TY

Why has my harvest got seeds
OK so looking at my new harvest auto, all is well... However, I have found 1 seed in the whole harvest How could this be possible from 1 plant on its own? No males were present 100% the only plant that was near was my olive tree and that has fruited, surely it can't be olive?
