Day 5 - Touch Down!

So today was an average day.. woke up.. cooked omelette for the girlfriend.. we went for a cruise on the motorbike.. came home to relax, cooked up a feast and then decided to check my brown baby.

This crazy girl sure did grow quite a bit! It hit the fold of the paper-towel and also started to grow under a layer of paper-towel, so I don't think it'll be growing any more in length, also the seed has opened up quite a lot.
Now is the time to plant this lil sucker!

I grabbed a pair of scissors and cut around it as it had grown under the paper-towel, I pulled away as much paper-towel as possible, though I left a tiny bit on there - didn't want to risk hurting the root while removing that tiny bit of paper-towel.

I got my container filled with Gardener's Choice Potting Mix, dug a whole deep enough to swallow up this root and placed my baby in there, leaving only the seed above the dirt.
I've now placed my container back in a dark box and will check them tomorrow.
