How long does it take to pop through the soil

A customer has a question and I hope we can get some opinions on it, thanks

I tried to germinate 5. Two out of five didn’t germinate.The other three have been in soil for Six days with a cfl 2 inches away.My question is, How long does it take to pop through the soil.

How deep did you plant them?

If nothing has happened after a week of sitting in the soil, then something’s wrong. How are you germinating the seeds? I would probably do a little digging around the beans that are not popping out of the soil at all.

read the wet paper towel method of germinating. it’s in the Free Grow Book download here. Once tap root is 1/4" + put in soil till head is just reaching the surface.
