They due best at temperature 80°-85° i just plant them in promix and use a floresent light and set it about 1"-2" above the soil to keep it warm should take about 3-5 days to germinate.

I soak them for 4 hours or so, then pop them into sterile seed-starting mix. 82.5 degrees & high humidity (around 90%) Usually I expect to get germination around 3 days but I actually had 20% of up at 48 hours several weeks ago. I had been playing around with temperatures & found 82.5 degrees was best f maters.
