I am in the process of transplanting my seeds and am wondering, how long before the seeds germinate do you start to see the second leaf emerge? I have many seedlings (understatement!) but only one or two have a second leaf coming from the first leaf. The seed was sown in August and germination started in late September, October. Can anyone tell me if this is normal?

I think you mean "how long AFTER the seeds germinate do you start to see the second leaf emerge?" In any case, for me it is an erratic business. I have some with only one small leaf after many months. Then again I also get many stems emerging at the same time on other plants. So from my experience, anything is normal!

Thanks Marie, of course that is what I meant! I guess it was too early in the morning for the brain to be functioning properly (or not enough coffee to jump start it). And thanks too for the info.
