>>2729438if you think its too late in the season, it probably wouldn't hurt to grab some store bought plants, depending on the variety you want
when sprouting seeds, i always soak the seeds for 12-24 hours, then set them in peat pellets, once i see they've gotten a root / sprout, i'll put them in a soil cup until they're ready to be planted
making sure the seeds are warm via a sprouting heating pad helps a lot too
