HELP with germinated Silver Joey Palm seed

[JANAIY]

I got hands on 2 germinated Silver Joey palm seeds from Hawaii and want to know how to proceed correctly when I get them?  Repot them right away and keep them outside, we have around 78 F and it’s humid.  Or still into the heated germination box potted or with spagnum?
I don’t want to mess this up so any details are highly appreciated!

As Johannesteijsmannia seedlings seem to grow a quite long seed-petiole I would wait with potting until they have produced a cotyledon (plumule) with radicle. Let them grow first inside a plastic bag (or so) where you can observe the growing process. Good luck!

This is essentially what I did with my J. altifrons seed.  Seemed to work well so far.  I have found that the farther along in the development process the seedlings are the more likely they will survive the transition process from baggie to pot. One really has to keep an eye on them during the process so we can know when the time has come to transition.  Baggie germination is much more controllable for me in my climate.  Just my opinion--from fails and successes....

Just to update, both seeds died. I would say it’s best to get seeds but not germinated since I believe that shipping stress might have interrupted the germination process. 
I rather buy  seedlings in the future.
