At 9:30 P.M. (72 hours), after seeing a wee hint of disturbance in the soil of the pot containing the 1250 Kline, I took a popsicle stick and gently scraped away the surface soil to try and see if it was germinating, and sure enough, it was cracking open and germinating! I covered it back up and then proceeded to check on the others and found the 689 Breznick was also germinating. A meat thermometer placed the temperature of the soil around the seeds at exactly 87 degrees Fahrenheit.
Hmmm…..the 1250 and the 689 were both tan colored seeds, while the 1004 and the 742 were both white seeds. That begs the question, do tan seeds germinate faster? It would seem that that would be the only reason for them being the first to germinate, seeing as they were also the two oldest of the four seeds, and the general consensus would claim older seeds take longer to germinate than younger, fresher seeds. I don’t know, maybe it doesn’t mean anything, just something to ponder.
