When you germinate a seed and it does not pop, just try planting it anyways. I had some seeds that popped in 2 days and then there were the new purple power seed that were itty bitty and didnt pop after 3 days so i planted them anyways and everyone sprouted.

True, I have had some take days too, a few a week. Put them in soil and monitor the development every other day. Don't let them rot in a paper towel, good soil has plenty of air exchange therefore less likely to rot or mold.

Agreed. I had a few that i just put straight in the ground instead of the pot because they didn't pop while germinating. They eventually started to grow.
