"Seed Caps?"
Occasionally, a tomato seed can't seem to get it's leaves out of its seed cap. But recently, I started 4 New Big Dwarf seeds, and all 4 that I planted had significant difficulty getting out of their seed caps. I've not seen 100% of germinating seeds with this issue (although 4 seeds is a low number). Is this likely a genetic abnormality with this variety? Maybe "old seed?" Any thoughts on this or "seed caps" in general?
