it shouldnt take that long. that being said ive came across some newbie mistakes like towels too wet or too dry or even forgetting to moisten up the towel again..
But overall its the easiest process and kids do it with different plants seeds and its all the same.
Paper towel rockwool jiffy whatever... keep moist not wet. not dry. all the time. 20-25c, in a shadowed area with some air circulation..
I germinated somewhere around 50 seeds with like 98% success in many different ways... may the best luck be with you, and stay calm brother
