Sprouting here has started in the last few days. If you made any
plic crosses, they will come first. I've had a theory that the seeds
sprout according to their eventual bloom season, but that idea may
be blown away because I have some JIs that have sprouted with
the plics.
Sprouting continues through the bloom season, so there is plenty
of time.
Hope you got some terrachlor to sprinkle on the tops of the pots
to prevent damping off.
