Germinating Questions

I'm germinating my first seeds. I did it the way Widow Maker did it in his growing guide.(Put seeds in a moist paper towel and put the paper towel in a small cup with a small amount of water at the bottom). It's been one day since I've put them in there, and I checked on them today, and I see no roots whatsoever. Is there usually roots after the first 24 hours? Thanks =D

Also, I noticed that the water on the paper towel is cold...should I move it somewhere warmer?

For best results it should be 80-85 degrees.. carefull as to hot can kill.

sometimes it takes 2-4 days for the seed to crack open and start sprouting the tap root

hey! I always and only root my seeds in that way. (PS: I've only grown 4 plants and rooted other 12 now) But anyway just keep waiting until a white thing sticks out from the seed. that is the main root which will dig into the soil and develop a rooting system.,the two leafes will come out from the seed after the rest has come out....erm---its difficult to explain with no pics... I would advise to use the forums search engine...I learnt all the stuff from here,, there are also good pictures in one of the posts!!

grow lots and smoke even more

Thanks for the info guys =D
