Yeah, like Gazza said, very carefully dig around it and replant right way up. Be careful not to touch the white root if you can avoid it (y)

Stem looks a bit too fat ..and the bent bit at the top is blurry but looks like a cotyledon ,,should be green but kinda yellowish like it came up in the dark . Got a clearer pic?

I've turned it over. just under the soil the root was about 3/4"
long and was a "s" shape, turning green for the last bit coming
out of the seed.

That fixed it. Sprouting already not even 12 hours later. Thanks for the great advice

What are you planning on planting it into eventually, max? Reason I ask, that medium that you've raised him/her in looks a bit ordinary on the top from what ya can see of it. Hope it's going into something a bit better? :)
