Seeds

Back when I went to San Diego, I found these seeds near a massive sago. If they are sago seeds how do I go about growing them?

Did you clean the red fruit off the seeds or did you find them that way?  If they are from a Cycas revoluta they would be viable only if there was a male plant nearby since they are dioecious.  If they float in water they're not going to germinate but if they sink you have a chance.  Place the seeds on top of well-draining soil and push them down leaving about half of the seed exposed.  Put them in a warm spot outside and water the seed once a week.  In optimal conditions you should expect to see germination in about 4-6 weeks.  Note the photo of the sprouted seeds in the following ad:
