sure did. stick it in some dirt it might still grow. man i hate buying seeds

This is why I soak my seeds then plant directly into soil. Too many things can go wrong when they have to be handled.

Sorry this happened, get it planted asap. My guess is you have a 50/50 shot of it surviving. I would plant it no more than 1/4" deep.

I have had this happened. If I were you I would place her back in a moist paper towel and let the tap start over 50/50 chance. If you put her in soil the tap may dry out and never pop. In a paper towel you can observe the growth. IMO
