Stem damage? Or just dried husk stuck on stem?

Does the husk or material on plant 2 look like it is damage on the stem to you or is it just dried seed husk stuck there? I tried to be as careful as I could removing the seed shell that was still partially closed over the leaves that were fighting to open.

This is nothing to worry about at all! As the plant grows, the seed casing will fall away naturally. Looks like you've got a very nice, STRONG seedling there, just be patient and she'll make you happy!

It will fall off soon enough, all by itself, no need to do anything. It is just a bit of "seed skin" and not harmful. The biggest danger comes from trying to remove it yourself.

They have a skin inside the shell which can sometimes come apart from the shell and that's what this is, I think. If it is it's fine it'll just fall off by itself or if you dab a bit of water on it that should losen it for removal but I would just leave it to grow out..
