Seed has lost its shell

[Paulijs]

hello, I tried to find something about this and I was not succesful. I germinated 5 seeds and one of them is about 2cm long and lost its shell already in germination box. Will it be ok if I plant it that way?

not too sure what a germ box is
but i use the wet paper towel trick, and sometimes they drop their shell while in the paper towel, just be careful with the oils on your skin damaging the root, the root snapping during plant, and just point the root downwards
best of luck

i like using plastic tweezers to handle sprouts/ceeds

put the tap root down, gently bury it with moist soil, bury the tap root in with the head 1/4 " below the soil line (not deep at all)

I like watering ceedling with a spray bottle

I am talking about that root has already lost its shell (seed shell). Just white root with white little leaves. Is it ok?
It just has been to long for him in germination box.

Hard to say without a pic, but likely it will be just fine

Why do you call it a "him", do you have masculine seeds?

Yeah, the sprouts ok. We need this guy around. He has some uncanny way of sexing sprouts.

NO! glue the seed shell back on
