Like others have stated, a floating seed does not mean a dud seed.. It does not mean the seed is bad.. and it definitely doesn't give cause for concern after 24 hours.. As a matter of fact, the "floating technique" is how I, as well as many others, were taught to germ seeds. You let the seeds float on top of the water without ever letting them sink to the bottom.. That way when the tap roots start showing, they won't start growing downward or curl up. The tap roots stay straight on top of the water. Seeds float, or don't sink for many reasons.. Not all of them are bad.. Google isn't always right about everything, lol. I hope she germs soon for ya!
from what ive seen, seeds usually dont sink if they are either really tiny (basil, poppy seeds),they do not have a fully developed interior allowing them to soak up enough water to become negatively buoyant...or they are sitting on the surface film of the water (tapping remedies that).. older seeds can/will take longer to sink and may or may not germinate..ime
Stan said these dub grape seeds are fresh, and this one sunk after 12 more hrs swimming so im thinking (hoping) it should be ok!
thx
