It took 15 days for my 842 Eaton seed to break through the soil and germinate. Constant fights with temp and moisture over that long of a period but I won! Other seeds planted at the same time had germinated in 2 to 3 days. Had all but assumed it was a gonner when finally it pushed throuhg. That was about a week ago and as of today, I can see the formation of a 1 cm first true leaf!
It's growing more slowly then the others and has a club root but it will go into the patch for its genetic value no matter what else comes from it.
I guess the old adadge is to just hang in there and never give up.
