Depends on how long they soak, if you file, tempeture of the incubation chamber, and the seed. Did you use Seaweed juice? I use it at 50% to soak with, even soaking the peat pots for 24 hours prior. I soak seeds for 24 hours in the 90° chamber after I file them. They they go into the 3-5" peat pots and back on the mat within the chamber. Temp says about 87 ° inside chamber. 805 Pukos 00 popped in 5 days, took the 500 2 days longer....so your still OK, specially if your temps were lower......I dont like to dig........
Master Wallace tells me- "Wiz,.... slow and sure wins the race" Hope this helps.

I have had a seed take almost 2 weeks to germinate. It was a little white seed and I never bothered to sand or soak it. Now I sand and soak them no matter what they look like. Good Luck
