Thanks man.
Yeah I'm worried about it drowning even though I'm not sure if this can really happen with a seed lol. I've just had the worst of luck with pre-soaks in cups..
Even paper-towel method is shoddy for me because I'm so old school I just wanna put it in dirt! :D
Paper towel method seems to have the highest success rate for me so that's why I'm opting for this method with these seeds.
