Take a pair of tweezers and gently squeeze from the top side to help with separation. I had success doing this just a few days ago. Sometimes a film from inside the husk or seed hull stays behind hindering the two from separatingMoved it to drier climes. Didn’t try to separate the leaves. So small and weak. Found previous posts on subject. Others told poster that leaves will open on their own. Mine have been this way since Tuesday when I first saw the sprout.
I think the problem arises from not enough friction on the shell during its initial ascent/ not planting seed deep enough. I don’t soak the seed either for what it’s worth. What are your thoughts on my hypothesis Miss Em?I have never had one not come off. Usually, like NTH said, I play around with it with a tweezers, squeezing it from the sides and trying to grab it... and eventually it just pops off and the leaves snap open. Don't give up... she wants you to help.

Yeah, it supports my thoughts that the medium is not right for sprouting... too woody, not fine/dense enough. If it was me, this little sprout would be in a 2" square nursery pot, with a special low-nutrient sprouting medium of soil and coir.I think the problem arises from not enough friction on the shell during its initial ascent/ not planting seed deep enough.

Too much water?Hey @Finnicki , how's this little one doing now?

Hmm... doesn't look like a shell or film to me...
I wouldn’t go to my final pot until I had my roots trained (see Emilya’s thread for watering) and they had 3 or 4 sets of leaves but that’s just how I would do it.One thought so. Wasn’t that much in there. Didn’t want a desert in that peat cup. Have a two cup set up waiting now. Clear cup inside with an opaque one outside. Going to start in those then go to the final pot.
