Job's tears or coix lacryma-jobi is actually an annual grass native to southeast Asia and it makes a hard gray seed that people can use as beads. Anyhow I planted maybe 15 seeds in the greenhouse with no extra heat about 6 weeks ago. Nothing coming up, the seed was really hard, I had presoaked them for a couple of days. Will they still come up?
