:wall:temp is 75 to 80 degrees seed is wrapped in a damp napkin then placed in an air tight jar to hold the moisure in . on average how long does it take for you guys seeds to crack????
 
30 hours isn't all that long, at least for some seeds
usually, most of my seeds pop in less than 24 hours
but i had this one seed that took forever
4 days in water, over a week in the towels just to get enough tap root to plant in soil
took another 5 days to pop up from the soil
but she is a beautiful little plant now - some seeds can be a bitch to sprout
 
had the same problem as you, when i started to germinate my seeds i used the damp paper towel in a plastic bag method which didnt work. my advice is take a mug (or some cup that light cant penetrate) cover the top so no light gets in and soak your seeds in the warm water for 24-48 hours, this jump starts the processs, i had old seeds and it made most of them crack within this time frame, once they cracked an the little root started to pop out a bit i planted them in dirt. so far so good. alright well i hope that helps, good luck with your grow!
 
thanks guys .. ya i wanna wait till i see the root b4 i put it in its home so that way i know 100% i'll get something
