The seeds are open 1/8 to a 1/4 inch on the non pointy side looking like a blooming flower almost but no tap roots are showing. After 36 hrs using the paper towel method I have left them in the bag and put back on heat source @ 85 degrees, my question is should I continue to leave the seeds in the paper towel till I see a tap root or put them in peat pots on a heat mat?
