Is the seed pod sitting on top of the soil and hasn't cracked? I have had the root push the seed up through the soil when I didn't plant it deep enough...

its most likely just doing its magic underneath the soil..it could be a slow starter(s)..

this could happen if you didnt bury it deep enough...id say give it some more time and im sure the seed will crack off..

I have had to remove the shell a few times. that seems to speed things up.

i have had to do this before too. once the seed breaks the surface it will dry out and sometimes it just basically strangles the sprout. id suggest delicately putting a lil dirt hill over it and keeping it moist with a spray bottle as often as you can. or if you have steady hands you can crack the seed head off of the sprout but this can be dangerous. i notice this happens with mostly older seeds most of the time. its a good idea to store your seeds with some herb to keep them fresher. its also not a bad idea if you get seeds from somewhere to let them sit in a container with some herb for a weak or two to suck up those oils.

mist the seed and itll soften it up before you try to pull it off (to prevent damage)
