Update

A couple of weeks ago, when I was watering the seed tray, one of the Gibberellic acid seeds had floated up out of the soil, because of the very loose mixture and the shallow planting. It had a small root "bubble" on it, so I put a small scoop of peat moss and perlite with a heavier consistency on top of all the seed cups. I also covered the whole tray with plastic wrap to limit evaporation and watering.

Yesterday or today, one of the seeds germinated, and I'm pretty sure it's the one that that had the root bubble. It's on the gibberellic acid side, and just looks like a little white blob. I poked a small hole in the plastic wrap over it so it could grow freely. Because it's white, and the other set didn't even look green for about a week, I'll delay putting the tray in the sunlight until a few others germinate.

Because only one of the seeds have germinated, I can't yet look at any data on the effects of gibberellic acid on the germination time. Though it's taken a little less time than the previous set of seeds, those were also soaked in the gibberellic acid, plus I'm doing things a little differently based on what I've read and learned from mistakes, e.g; The container size, number of waterings, soil composition, length of gibberellic acid exposure.

I sort of wish I hadn't thrown out the seed I cut open to check for freshness, I just thought about whether it could have split into two plants.

Comments and suggestions are appreciated.
