For germination.
I let the seeds soak in water for no longer then 12 hrs. This is also recommended on seedsman website.

And let it begin.

I'm jealous...

After the 12 hr soak the Seeds were folded into a damp (not wet) paper towel and placed somewhere warm. Around 75°.

Less then 24 hrs into the germination process. 4 seeds have cracked, 3 of those have a 1/8" taproot emerging. Still waiting on one.
hopefully they will all be open tonight for 100% germination. Once they all have 1/4" taproots they will be ready to put into soil about 1/8" deep with the taproot facing down. That will most likely be in the next 24hrs.

Let's gooooooo

YEY! Seems we were both waiting on one little lag behind. LOL I just looked at mine and it has a little tap visible, so it's a good one.

24 hrs into the germination process
4 of 5 have cracked (so far)
3 of those have taproots reaching 1/4" in length and have been placed into a damp medium (not wet) About 1/8" deep with a few drops of water over the seed

I'll be starting them off in a 2x4 veg tent under a philzon ph-d6 that doubles as a heat mat. (I germinate seeds up there!)
without any exterior ventilation I'm able to keep the temps around 75°F and the humidity at 80%

After only a few drops the soil needs to dry out so I'm going to let everything sit for another 48hrs, by then our seedlings should have sprouted.

Mind if I tag along, you got your beans quickly.
I can't wait to receive mine and make a start

3 days into germination
all 5 seeds prove to be viable.
so far we have 4 helmet heads sticking out of the soil. Still waiting for one

Bottom right is the only seed that hasn't broken the surface so far.

 

[WakkaDerpin]

I'll mist them with a little water if the helmets are still on in a few hours.

After noticing the soil was still wet in the 5th cup I dug down a little to expose the seed and hopefully keep her from drowning.
Having too much moisture can also cause bacteria or rot to set in so I wont water them again until each cup starts to dry.

 

[WakkaDerpin]

After looking a little closer at the pic of #5. I decided to dig around her a little more in order to completely uncover the seed, she looks like she's already starting to remove her helmet.

 

[WakkaDerpin]

Yep, I dont want to mess with them too much in this stage but I probably just saved this one.
