Seed not Germinating - 5 days

I'm keeping soul humid not completely soaked.. have a bottle on top to keep humidity. Leaving on the balcony with sun during the day to make sure is elevated temp and su light calls for the sprout... At night bringing inside and leaving 6h of led together with other older plants I've previously planted. Will wait for the 10 day mark. Left half finger deep so is pretty strong based for LST... maybe beginner concerns but that was the idea....

Just give it time , some seeds are thicker than others , 10 days with the right temp and humidity with a little moisture on the top soil and you should be fine 👌🏾Happy growing

Half a finger is along way for it to go. Give it time. seeds can take that long normally too... it'll get there. Try 1/2 inch at deepest.. if you go too shallow the shell may not rip off or if really shallow and isn't blacked out from light it won't be happy either. so, jus tmake sure it's covered and completely dark even if you have to water a bit for some odd reason a little erosion isn't a problem. don't keep the soil damp.. moist is fine.

How's your temperature? I had a few that refused to sprout and then i put a heating pad underneath and they sprouted within the next day.

It can take up to 7 days. After then I'd dig it out. If it hasn't sprouted throw it in a glass of water and pray. Hopefully this helps!
