habitat_gardener,
You are supposed to check for germination every 2 days with seeds in a paper towel. If you see the seeds opening up, then check daily. The seedlings in the paper towel should be put into a cell pack: either 1inch or 2inch. Then get bigger to re-pot into a 4inch pot to grow more efficient roots for outdoor living conditions when they develop at least 4 sets (tiers) of true leaves.
They're usually kept inside because temps under 55 degrees could kill them _as fast as lightening_!
