Seed shell may cause problems?

Learningstarted grow question 6y ago
My seeding seems to be having a little trouble sheding the seed. I am curious as to if I wait a couple more days to see if the mix of the sun drying out the shell and the plant getting stronger push through or if I need to figure out how to get it off.

Hey there 👋 I had the same thing happen lately to one of my Girl Scout cookies. What worked for me was increasing the moister and humidity. I gently sprayed it every few hours with a mist sprayer, it made it easier for the plant to shed its shell Happy Growing 🌱

You can either wait. They most always get it off themselves. Or grab a pair of tweezers and just gently help her little hat off. Either way will be fine! I personally help mine out! Happy growing!!!
