I sowed Sinningia aghensis seed in September 2005 in a closed plastic deli container that I have kept on a windowsill. I just checked it, and there is one small plant with half a dozen leaves that have a heart-shaped top, but a round bottom. There are no hairs noticeable, and the leaves are thin and green. Each leaf comes from the same point in the soil, but I don't want to disturb it to see if a tuber is forming. Is this what a seedling should look like? At what point will it need a lot of sun? I'm not sure where I can put it to get that - I had to clear all the moss that had covered the soil to see this seedling.
