As far as a dummy crop, I think they're just waiting to adjust to the lighting Remember, even after 12/12 starts it can take a few weeks before you see your first hairs!
I Threw some seeds on my compost heap after a clean. It was there for over 6 months before I was surprised with a plant. Initially 3, but now only 2 (one male, one female) due to my dogs running everywhere. They broke the stem of the smallest.

Seeing that this is my first own plant. I looked into this site for guidance for the past 3 months. I can post pics of it if you would need it, but "HomeGranny's" comment of 4-5m high plants really worry me. Mine is 1m high and shows the female v hairs already, but there is about 15cm left before the tips will be visible to the back neighbor.

How long will it still take to make buds? And how tall do you think it will get?
