Some people will soak their seeds in water between paper towel sheets before they plant them. They do sometimes sprout, and actually grow. Pumpkin seeds can be started like this, and then planted, I did this in about 2nd grade. If you just plant the seed how it is with the growing pointy part sticking up, then it will just a have a head start.

Unless I am completely mixed up on what your question was.
