Up to a week has been my experience. They seem to germ more readily in soil than in paper towels...just my findings. I file them lightly like AG seeds and pre soak anywhere from 4-8 hrs. Good luck, Duff.

i will find out AGAIN in a few days, but i do believe that with the right temperature of seed-starting mix, (87-92 degrees F) they could possibly take as little as 4-5 days, with proper filing/notching/snipping-away of the seed coat. do some practice ones before the "real" ones, though.
