Exposed to light how? Shallowly sown, put in full sunlight, or under gro-lights? (Having received many Lilium species from the PBX I am especially interested)

Two seeds of L. pumilum have already made a root in five days.  That's amazing.  I don't see any development yet in the delayed hypogeal seeds.
