Are your annuals late this year?

in Plants
I sowed various scented Dianthus, antirrhinum, nicotiana, ageratum etc and they are all behind friend's shop bought ones.
They were grown in a greenhouse on heated pads and given the best TLC.
Tomatoes, peppers and cucumbers also slow.
I have just got to be patient, I suppose.

Sweet peas were ok, but they're hardy annuals, unlike the morning glory.
Tomatoes were slow, but I did nothing different from the normal with those, so I can only assume it was the rubbish compost. They're better now.
Commercially grown ones will always be further on due to growing conditions.
