There has been so many mentions of these things on various forums lately that I finally had to break down and look it up just to see what they are. ;)

Congrats on your success. One tip to how to remove stuck seed coats - spit. Saliva enzymes will soften and dissolve the coat so that it will fall off. Just dab a bit of saliva on it and let it sit a bit then a bit more. Within a couple of hours it should fall off or be easy to remove.

Thanks digdirt...i'll try that. It doesn't look like it's gonna come off on its own, so I guess I have to try something haha.
