I didn't realize I had to soak the seeds before planting.Am I doomed or should they eventually sprout?

You are fine, I never soak the seeds here. They go right in the potting soil.

Well I just dug one seed up and it did in fact split open at the end and begin to sprout, but I accidentally broke off 1/4" part the sprouted. It broke right at the end of the seed.

yep, Id start another seed. Once you break the root tip off, its lights out little seedling.

Do you need more seeds? I've got a bunch started too.

Tremor - thanks for the offer but I think I'm all set. I have 7 other seeds planted that should be coming up any day now, plus some plants someone locally has offered me. Thanks!

I broke the radical off one of my seedlings when it was only a 1/2 inch long and it sent out more ..kind of a club root thing ... I planted it and it came up fine. That is rare though.
