Yes but I suggest starter cubes. Also B1 vitamin will help too but only the first watering.

i germinated corn this spring by soaking the kernels in water overnight and then placing them on a wet paper towel and roling up the paper towel to keep them moist
I had very good germination rates. Corn germinates fast.

Don't bother. First of all, corn germinates in 3-5 days. Secondly, it does not transplant well. Sow directly into the ground.

in the event that they have been soaking for over a week, they do no longer look to be going to sprout...they are already on their way in direction of rotting. The 'sink or waft' attempt is a sturdy one. attempt that. additionally, once you soak, attempt to apply filtered or bottled water. The chloramine often extra to faucet water can inhibit germination in many species. Rain water is rather terrific. i could additionally the two no longer place the moist towel in a bag or shop the bag open so there is a few air flow.

I would actually say to put it on a dish *under* a paper towel, and then put just enough water in the dish to cover the paper towel. When they start to sprout, you can then plant them in dirt.
