Should I give up on her , and start another ? Two ...

Thanks everybody for the encouragement and advice! I may let her go for a little bit longer to see what the first node looks like at least. If I replace her, it might be diff strain / breeder though. Let’s see what happens.

Alte Samen haben oft Startschwierigkeiten, aber ich würde das Exemplar beobachten. Ich habe die Erfahrung gemacht, das Pflanzen aus älteren Samen regelrecht explodieren können, wenn sie ihr Wurzelsystem ausgebildet haben. Gib ihr für 2 Wochen möglichst lange Dunkelperioden ohne die Blüte auszulösen, in der Dunkelheit wird das Wurzelsystem aufgebaut. Danach entweder direkt in die Blüte, oder das oberirdische Wachstum mit einer langen vegetativen Phase fördern. Viel Glück!

If you already have other plants growing and starting a new seed would cause scheduling problems then I would keep this and let it grow. It might not be huge but you should get some yield from it. If starting a new seed now doesn't cause problems then I'd get another seed going. I am not a fan of the paper towel method. It is good to allow you to see if the seed germinates. What I found is that most seeds germinate so why do I have to see it. And, the tap root is very easily damaged and it is very easy to kill a seed during transplant. I have better success by soaking seeds in water for 24 hours then planting them in their forever pot so there is no transplanting and never any transplant shock or damage.

She looks alive man! Don't give up! Never give up my friend! Watch and see, I will bet that this plant gives you beautiful Kolas. Never give up
