I think what you're looking at is the seed you planted, the plant sprouted and the seed shell stayed ontop/attached to the sprout. Is it a mature seed shell? aka does it look like the same seed you planted lol

yea the cotyldons are probably starting to emerge and seed could still be attached or dirt, numerous things it could be as said above

did it on one of mine last run ..

I did leave it on .. did stall the plant I belive ..

if I see sumthing like it agin I will carefully try to help the plant out of it ..

was the lest good and healthy looking all the way and grew slow ..

maybe just bad genitic ..

but it made a long stretch and the steam had the seed on and got thin at that spot (I belive water had a hard time find its way) so it had a rough start Bc. of it ..

Yeah sounds to me like the shell is still attached to the plant, its very common. If you are careful you can remove it with tweezers or a toothpick just try not to damage the plant. As the leaves grow they will break the seed open naturally.
