      Mine went into cells in the greenhouse on the 23rd Feb and the first ones were up on the 7th March. I have at least 85% germination but some of the late ones aren't doing much now . . . so I think you will certainly be able to catch up

        Brilliant thanks all, I'm sowing them outside in a cold frame do you think this will be ok for them to germinate or shall I start them inside?

            They will germinate outside just fine but will take a little time, I would start them off indoors and as soon as the first one shows start hardening them off by moving them to your cold frame during the day . . . . as long as the weather isn't too cold . . . and bringing them back in at night.
