2 ilama seeds have germinated in 20 days, GIANT PINK

Seeds sourced from @raulglezruiz! I have just gotten into this hobby around November, about 2 months later I bought seeds from Raul. I soaked them in 800-1000PPM GA3 until they completely sank to the bottom of their containers (2-3) days) A week ago one seed has sprouted while the 3 others slowly crack open! I managed to germinate such a difficult variety of Annona in under a month. it took about 20 days for this seed to germinate. The stem is a bright, but deep magenta/red, but will probably grow out of it. It still hasn't lifted the seed out of the soil yet. I'm so scared of getting it out of the cup and into a pot, should I want it until it drops the seed coat? It is a very shallow red cup of soil, half of the cup.

300 ppm did the trick for me, I would be careful going that high with other seeds, it may work for some, it could certainly kill more ...

It was actually that high of a mix because I misread the instructions lol, I was going for 500

the same thing happened for me but it was only for 24 hours. so far 3/4 guillermo seed,1/4 genova red and 5/5 a.deceptrix. the rest have not germinated yet. you can wait for the first 2-4 real leaves before transplanting to a larger container.  btw the seedlings may grow elongated for 2/3 months because we've used too much ga3.
