The Float Test Myth

[justicebzwiegandjlz832]

Tossing seeds in a glass and discarding the floaters is an old habit that throws away perfectly good seeds. Floating usually means the shell has a dry air pocket, and many will sink after twelve hours and sprout fine, while a sinker can still be dead inside. Someone tracked a few hundred seeds by float result and germination outcome and put the numbers on https://kushindicaseeds.com, showing almost no correlation. Use the soak as a pre treatment, not as a sorting method.
