Soaking Hemp seeds can be a good way to plant the seeds indoors. These seeds are so small that they only require two or four hours of shorter soaking time. It may take up to 7 days for hemp seeds to sprout when stored frozen. Soak the seed for a few hours in water and place it in a covered plate between layers of moist tissue.

You’ve hit the nail on the head here – soaking is crucial to the success of the seed!!
You only need to do it four 4-6 hours in total, but it makes a massive difference to the outcome. Place the seeds between a couple of layers of moist paper, and expect to wait around seven days for them to sprout.

First, check with your state guidelines if it is legal to grow hemp in your home. The FARM bill only pertained to industrial hemp, not personal cultivation.
If it is legal to cultivate hemp in your home here are the care instructions:
Hemp plans need to grow with full sun. LED lights are a favorite for indoor growers.
Grow in organic soil.
The area the hemp is being grown in needs to be well ventilated—hemp like constant airflow.
Hemp likes a comfortable temperature between 60F and 80F.
Keep your soil loose and not damp. Hemp does not grow well in packed wet soil. Keep watering every other day.
To grow from seeds, I would use the old paper towel method for germinating.
Keep in sunlight with a moist paper towel for a week until sprouted.
Transfer to a small container with light watering until big enough to transfer to a larger container.

If you’re planning on growing hemp seeds indoor, make sure you buy the right type of seeds for indoor cultivation. Soak them for half a day and plant them about ½ to 1 inch deep. You’ll need to ensure that it gets the right temperature, humidity, and lighting conditions to germinate properly. Add water and fertilizer and make sure that the soil drains well. Depending on the seed type, it should sprout in about 5 to 10 days.

Hemp seeds can be grown indoors using the following method:
Soak the hemp seeds for over 6 hours, and this will promote germination.
Plant seeds in 1-inch soil, a seed starter mix is recommended.
Utilize a seedling heat mat to keep the soil at the ideal temperature of 68 to 77 degrees.
Keep humidity at 65 to 70 degrees for ideal hemp growth.
Water very lightly as hemp does not grow well with too must water.

The hemp plant is resilient and will be grown under almost any condition. Don’t stress if you can get it at first. I would read Melody’s method. This seems like the most promising and foolproof way to do it. If someone like me can do it by following her directions, anyone can do it.

Soak the hemp seeds for 8-12 hours. Make sure your indoor environment is set to a temperature between 65 and 70 degrees Fahrenheit. Plant the hemp seeds one-inch deep in moist soil. Use a humidity dome or grow lights to manage the humidity in the indoor climate.

You can grow hemp seeds indoors by germinating the seeds and planting it in soil. You can also follow the steps below.
• Soak the seed in tap water for 12hrs and place it on a towel
• Put a wet paper towel on a plate to retain the moisture
• Seeds should be 1.3cm apart so their roots will not be tangled
• Put another damp paper towel over the seeds and store at 70 to 85 °F
• Spray paper towels to ensure moisture and wait for the seeds to germinate
You can visit WikiHow for a detailed guide in growing hemp seed indoors.

I would have to agree with the wet paper towel method.
Hemp is so hardy that they will germinate so quickly with this method.
Keep in mind the temperature, as Melody said. 70 to 85 degrees Fahrenheit is perfect.
Check on them every day to watch the progress, and they should be ready for planting in a couple of days.
Now that you are about to have hemp plants growing, You’ll need to consider your grow setup. You’ll need:
Lights
Space
Airflow
Humidity
Nutrients
Thermometers
I probably missed some things, but so that you know, you’re in for quite the operation if you’re growing hemp indoors.

Here you grow!
No 1: Get organic soil. Fill up a cell to half. Put in the seed. Fill the cavity with more soil. Water is over. Wait for five days. Say hello to your baby hemp plant.
No.2: Immerse the seeds in water for 24 hours. Then place them in a wet paper towel. Wrap it around the seed and put it in a bag and put the bag in a dark warm room. Wait for it to germinate to life.

You can find various guides online, but here’s a general overview:
Begin by germinating. If you’ve ever grown tomatoes from seed, you’ll see that the process is similar.
-Pre-soak seeds for eight to up to twelve hours. This helps improve germination.
-The ideal temperature here is between 65-70*. If you have a basement, that’s a great place.
-You’ll want to plant your seeds an inch deep in the moist mix (look for something that is specific for seed-starting).
-Use a heat lamp or mat for temperature control; you can also use a humidity dome to further control germination.
-Care for the plants as they grow until you are able to transition them outside or to areas od sunlight.

The germination process is pretty straightforward.
Just put a few hemp seeds in a damp paper towel and place them in a plastic bag.
This moisture will cause the seeds to start sprouting.
Once they’ve sprouted a bit, place them with the taproot face down into the soil about an inch or so deep.
Then watch how aggressive the hemp plant starts growing!

It is similar to any other germination process. Pre soak the seeds, then place on a moist paper towel to ensure germination. Once they start to sprout, place them 1inch deep inside the soil. Then, just like any growing plant, you will want to make sure they are not in direct sunlight too often, are watered, and checked frequently to make sure they are properly growing.

Soak the seeds. Wet a paper towel and put it on a plate. Put seeds 1⁄2 inch apart. Wet another paper towel and place it on top—70 to 85 °F out of direct sunlight (top of the fridge). Keep moist. Check several times, so they don’t dry out. Seeds open with 48 hours.
2-inch garden pots Filled ¾ with soil. 1⁄4-inch hole in the soil. Use tweezers to drop seeds in. Cover with 1⁄4 inch of soil. Keep out of direct sunlight. Use cool white grow lights. Don’t touch the seeds, and they should poke out of the soil in 5-10 days.
