Way to confirm germination?

[Jaguar]

Is there a way to confirm if my seed germinated? Pretty sure I drowned my seed so I don’t want to waste too much time waiting for nothing and would like to get started on cleaning the machine to try again. I’m on day 5 and tried peaking into the coco pod and I can see the top of the seed but nothing else. I was wondering if it was relatively safe to pull out the coco pod and cut in in half to see if there is any life or if I should wait 10 days then throw it away.

Only way to confirm is when the seed pops is when see it come threw the Coco pod.

You can peak at the seed in the Coco pod but you risk damaging the tap root

Wait till the tenth day of you don’t see anything sprout go in and check peak in carefully a toothpick will work just be very careful when doing it if the coco pod to get push it up

@Week 1 Notifications

• Stephen Grobo Team - Horticulturalist

Your seed is tucked into it’s dampened coco pod and should be dangling above the water, allowing the airstone to send it’s bubbles to the surface, keeping the coco pod at the perfect moisture/oxygen mix to allow your seed to pop.

During germination it is important to keep your Coco Pod moist, to ensure your seed will pop. You may notice there are several different water levels the Grobo can utilize. During the first 10 days we are filling to the high water level. You can simply add more water now to replace any lost from evaporation, no need for a drain yet.

@Week 2 Notification

• During this time you should see your seed sprout. If by the end of this week the seedling has not emerged, it’s time to investigate and possibly restart. When a seed is successfully planted, it will split in two as its sprout emerges from the husk. The tail grows downwards, plummeting deeper into the soil until it has enough leverage to sprout above ground as well. The husk that has the two halves of the seeds will emerge from the ground and absorb solar energy to produce chlorophyll. The rest of your plant’s growth continues from there.
