I did the file and paper towel method for the first time and set em on the cable box last night to germ. After checking them tday the seeds are starting to peel apart looking like flower almost, looks like the leaves are trying to push out but no root starting to show. Is this normal? They have been in the plastic bag for 24 hrs and I'm afraid I have killed the seeds, does anyone have an suggestions or is this normal?
