I decided to test this on Friday. Saturday morning I had a bunch of sprouted radishes and kale.

I got a tip from someone about using:
1 teaspoon of Potassium Nitrate (spectricide stump remover)
2 tablespoons Hydrogen Peroxide
1 liter of water (I used distilled water)

I've never had seeds sprout in < 12 hours before. This definitely works. I logged the test here:

I didn't do it scientifically. I didn't have a control. I just threw the seeds in solution that night and they were sprouted in the morning. I wasn't expecting anything to be sprouted so I actually wasn't ready for that. It made for an interesting morning.

So anyway, I'm going to do all of my seeds that way from now on and I'm going to make sure I have my beds ready to receive them too.
