Spoon and drop it into 1/4-1/2” deep hoke as usual

Just put in soil bud...those shells have skins that are bonded very strongly to the cotyledons until later in the seedlings life. If you try to mess with it, you will likely tear something and kill it. If it's meant to live and thrive, it will break soil and shed it naturally.

Saturday wake and bake, huh? Guilty as charged Dwight.

I agree with @Mudballs be really gentle. Seed is not expecting to shuck it's husk just yet and you will only compound this seedlings problems by doing so with force.

Understood I'll sober up a bit and gently place it in dirt good Saturday everyone

There is a way to remove that skin but unless you have done it before you may want to just burry it in the soil and let it try to push up naturally like mentioned earlier. I have developed a method but it's extremely delicate. I basically pinch the skin in between my two bare fingers and ever so gently I pull at the same time and that skin film will pop off. The seedlings are so delicate that you can easily snap the seedling and kill it. In the beginning I killed a lot of seedlings but now my survival ratio has dramatically improved. 80% of the time I can gently giggle and work on that skin and get it to slide off without damaging it.

I had a seed do that once. And I also grew a monster plant, really special probably one of my fav plants. It wasn't from the same seed like your though, I'm just saying. No the seed that was like yours was all stunted and kinda mutated, also looked like it had a boron deficiency from the start. Terrible really, wish I hadnt bothered.

... I'm sure yours will probably be alright though.. wow is that the time - i should go.
