How long should I soak starter plugs?

Hi everyone, just a quick question. I have my sun-leaves starter plugs soaking in a mild vitaboost solution that has been ph'd. My seeds are taking longer than expected to germinate and the starter plugs are already soaking. How long is too long for them to soak...24....42 hours? Should I toss them and do a new batch once the seeds germinate, soaking them only briefly? Do I adjust the ph again before the seeds go in? Any help will be kick-ass:blsmoke:

The starter plugs i use i soak very briefly,then throw in the seeds.Put a dome on top and mist daily.wait a couple of days see which plugs seeds took too.the seeds that didnt grow in the starter plug,I reuse,put in another seed.

Rooting plugs...there like the size of a shot glass or so?? Surely your just pulling my leg.

you can take them out of the solution and store them in a sealed ziplock freezer bag until ready to use. i'm assume this because mine come pre-soaked and this is how i buy them.:peace:

They've been in the solution over night...is it too late or can I still put them in a bag. Basically is any harm done by letting it soak too long?

I didn't think so...thanks a lot man! I just took a peek and one of the NL seeds shot out its taproot. I just hope the sweet nightmare pops, thats what I'm most excited for.
