Weird germination

[LoganLikesSchool]

Germing a NL Auto.
Put in glass of water for 24 hours, then transferred to Paper towel.
Total of 48 hours has gone by. Just took a look at it to see the progress and I notices that the shell slightly
cracked open and it appears that a Dark color root is emerging. Dark brown or black.
Is this something to worry about? The paper towel has been kept moist, and inside a plastic bag with plenty of oxygen. Also, the temp has been warm and never hot or cold.

Thanks

could be a fragment of the shell or something. Is it just a tiny little piece poking out? I'd give it some time or plant and see if it pops

Yeah it could be, but it looks like a little root. Im going to wait until morning to see what happens (7 or so hours).

If I understand correctly, the seed should be is opened, isn't it?

It sounds like its just the inner layer of the shell and it is a brownish and dark brown almost black i usually do mine for around 4-5 days and sometimes a week just to be sure the root is strong before planting

U can drown seeds u know? 24 hors is way too long, allow 8-12 hors for the seed to sink, then extract to a damp kitchen towel at 25c/77f

I have never had a problem leaving my beans in water. I leave them in until the tap root appears and transplant. 3-4 days sometimes. I have more success this way than any other way I've used.

Im sorry i should have been more specific i dont do the glass of water when i do mine i just soak a paper towel put the seed on it fold it up put it in a sandwich bag and stick it in a dark place for a few days... i guess my way is slower than the other but i dont have to worry about drowning them

There is nothing to worry, that is how they look at first if you watch closely theres like a dark thing, from there the white root shall spring, leave it a few more days, some seeds take longer to germinate, depends on the conditions they were kept.
