Seed Germination

Hello and thanks in advance. This site has given me valuable information so I ask again. How long can a seed stay damp and dark before it must be planted. Don't want to miss grow window before heat hits. Should I first soak 24 hrs and then paper towel and come back 10 days later?

10 days later! Holy smokes, it would have buds on it by then!🤪 Lol just buggin. I soak my seeds until they sink, usually happens within 12-16 hours then they hit the paper tower for about 2-3 days checking on them everyday to make sure they stay moist, i plant them when the tap root is about 1/4" to 1/2" long and plant them about 1/2" under the soil/coco🌱

Depends on the seed. Older seeds I soak 18 hrs in spring water covered so they are dark in a warm area. Fresher seeds 3 hrs.I then pre moisten my grow medium with the same spring water. The key is not to have it wet just moist. Then I put the bean point down about 1/2 inch and cover the seed with the medium. Seed will pop up in 4-5 days. Gl
