Traditional, we nick and sow the seeds. Recently I learn from a friend in Taiwan of new method, may be this is not new to someone, but just to share my experience.

After the seeds was nicked, I placed on top of a wet toilet paper for about 6 to 8 hours. The seeds then will slowly absorb the water as become bigger and softy. Then carefully take off the skin cover using fingertip, starting from the nicked part of the seed.

This is the photo taken on the first day.
