with the color they have i expect them to be black at the end, definitely so if in some sunlight as right now they are already that way under my lights.

Still nothing here. I have 3 more in paper towels right now. I will check them in the morning. That will be 48 hrs. That is my normal time frame. If they are not popped yet they should have cracked their helmets.

Regardless of the seed source sometimes if say i get them too warm or the water i use goes stale they will dampen off in the shell, and typically if im not seeing seed crackage after 2 days ill replace the water and manually crack there shells though when my own when i have plenty to spare i usually just grab the vigorous ones and avoid those that dotn crack though thatās typically less than 10-5%.
Also fair warning i guess a bit late i would expect the odd dud in the ones i gave out though i typically pull any of the more obvious or questionable seeds to my eye before sealing them up, typically they will be on the greener side or smaller and black compared to the rest.
Personally id just start a couple more, and the water you use for whatever method your doing add a little sprtiz of h202 as a precaution.
My method is i just mix up some cold tap water with a spritz or two of h202 in it and that goes into an old contact case which i float the seeds on top and then that goes on top of one of my lights for added heat, usually its a day and they are starting to throw little tails or have cracked, also once the seed sink i usually do a water change out with cold water and h202 again and lightly dry the seed off to allow it to float again, though once it gets past 3 days will all that said and or done i figure there a lost cause.
Bonus if you run out i have plenty more 
As for @BERZERK taste is normal compared to any nutrient ive run well, only time anything typically tastes bad is when the plants ive grown get excessively burnt the crap out of with whatever nutrient i was running or have had a really really bad grow, both of which occur very infrequently unless im trying new things.

Yeah, I usually pop my beans in paper towel folded at least double thick lay the beans on it and fold. Then I wet the paper towel with regular tap water. Then pat it out to remove excess water and place in a baggie. Place on top of refrig. Always have good luck. Decided to try direct in soil this time and no dice. I have some in paper towels tho and will check them in the morning. I did yours and a couple other auto strains, to see if Iāve"lost it"!

direct to soil is tricky especially if you dont keep that top layer wet enough which usally causes the rest of the pot to be soggy, i dont do the paper towel and baggie anymore as i find the soak and float till they throw tails then direct plant afterwards to be the more reliable to me.
Though i do recommend the addition of some hydrogen peroxide, since i made that change many years ago my dampening off due to bacteria or whatever is quite rare in comparison.

Like Iāve said many times lol there must be a hundred ways to germinate seeds, and Iāve tried em all over the many years of growing! Yāall know my favorite method! lol But also, as long as any method you use works, thatās the main thing! There really isnāt a ābadā way to germinate lol Iāve tossed em out the window even, only to find a āvolunteerā where I tossedā¦ lol
Iām hoping then Cinderevil get here soon, still nothing yet. But I got faith in ya Mr.Sparkle!

Im kinda the opposite to most in that if i can run something without additions i will prefer that.
Saying that if running MC in coco key point for me is the pH needs to be around 6.3 as everytime ive run it around 5.9-6.1 i get bad spotting and issues at the onset of flower, at 6.3 though it runs smooth.
@JohnnyPotseed would only be about 8 days in the mail system by now, though typical id be expecting it either friday or by mid next week, and if it doesnāt show after awhile after that i can always resend

Wednesday Update.
Left side getting bulky seeds are still a ways off though im likely gonna move the lemon pie up to the third chamber just so i can run it on water as its finishing up which its in the process of right now, though im gonna have to punt two sunflower seedlings the lady put in there though they will have room down below.
Right side did some minor flopping on the cinderevils to adjust the canopy, and the Trizzlers are moving along, sprayed the one plant this morning and also last night with a new batch of sts, which for whatever reason mine always seems to go dark after a week once mixed when others dont, i initially thought it was the older plastic spray bottle that was doing it so have upgraded to glass, though same thing im gonna get some new distilled water though as the stuff i have is quite old and there could be some cross contamination with it that may be causing the quick drop out.
Otherwise the cinderevils are sure filling out that side.
