Echo Double Hybrid Mix Lisianthus

I bought lisianthus seeds from this website knowing that I might fail at growing them. I knew I wanted to try my luck at growing them because I saw them on someone's tiktok page and they said its lisianthus and I quickly realized that the sentiments within the gardening community is to buy plugs as seeds can be stressful unless you're a professional or a cut flower gardener. Despite the challenges I wanted to try. People said its a finicky plant and all of the above so off I went with my seeds since I couldn't even afford plugs anyway and couldn't afford big plants that's established. I put 3 seeds each in each pod of my hydroponic system. To my surprise they all germinate. I did not separate them as it seemed impossible at that point. I then transferred them to a tiny cardboard looking pots where they stayed for the longest while because they seemed to grow so SLOW. eventually I transferred them to the soil. No real growth...they give me leaves, didn't grow upwards whatsoever. Winter came. I covered them, they stayed green. This is the 2nd - 3rd year since. Out of nowhere they sprouted up and had loads of flowers. My biggest complaint is that NONE of them are purple. All pink and whites. Beautiful still and I made a bouquet for my kids teacher. I started more from seed today. It takes patience but my 9 seeds turned into over a dozen stems with sub stems and flowers. I'm overall happy. Dont forget to pinch them when young and peony cage for support

So far after a month with about 25 seeds planted in have 2 seedlings.

None of my seeds germinated. I’m so sad. I planted some inside and some outside. Usually everything grows in this area.
