I always just put them in rapid rooters in a seedling tray, on top of about 1/2” of perlite and fill the bottom tray about 1/4” with water mixed with recharge, on top of a heat mat temped to 80, and I haven’t had a seed not germinate since I started doing this, and usually they sprout within 2 days with the heat mat on, sometimes just one.

I just use a pair of cheap eye brow tweezers. Hold the seed on its seam side with tweezers and hold sides of seed with thumb and finger. A slight press of the tweezers works everytime. No need for a "tool" or cracker.

I just use my fingers. Squeeze the pointy end of the seed after soaking for 24 hrs. I only do this if I dont see action within 48 hours of soaking

nice, kinda what I assumed it would look like. I had some improperly stored genetics from my last run that didn't do anything, wonder if that would've saved em.

A cut up emery board placed in a small covered container. Put seeds in container, shake it all about and that's how we do the hokey pokey.
Supposed to scarify and weaken the seed surface as the seeds contact the emery board during the shaking, so it's easier for the shell to crack open for germination.

An emery board is that thing your grandmother uses to sharpen her nails so she can rake grampy's back when they're all hopped up on marywanna and getting their freak on.
