John, I'm afraid that if you cannot see an embryo when you hold a seed up to the light, it is not there. Have never encountered an invisible one. You might want to plant a few of the stronger ones just to be sure. ProMix or a similar sterile medium with a little milled peat moss on top of the seeds should coax out any unseen embryos.

My question is, are they supposed to be clear and no coloration of an embryo? Are are my seeds just duds?
